Midiland S4 8200 + ?????????

[Hawke]

I'm currently still running on an original SBLive and DTT2500,
which has suited me up to now but has always been ... quiet

So as far as an upgrade goes... well how good is this combination?

I'm also not sure I understand all the input/output combinations and problems and so on. This system would run 5.1 in DVD, but what about games? And would it even matter? I really like the Fourpoint feature of the DTT2500, I guess my concern: Is there something similar in this setup... would I still get four speaker sound while playing games?

Thanks in advance.

[edit] - ok, now I'm trying to figure out which one to buy... I read that there are a number of problems with the GXTP... so
Philips AE?
another SBLive? (seems the best card still)
one of the FM801? (sonicfury, santa cruz)

I already have the Midilands on the way.. if you own a set I'd appreciate knowing what cards work best with these speakers. Thanks!

I'm not exactly sure...

I have the Game Theater XP but as of now only have 2speakers/sub. I believe a lot of people are having troubles getting output on all speakers.

You may want to check out the hercules forum (audio) and see what you can find.

Good luck!
