Im having problems hooking them up. Should I be using the analog or digital jacks on my sb audigy? Should I enable Digital Output only in my creative labs audiohq?
Im not geting sound from the rear speakers =(

 
AFAIK the Z560s do not have digital inputs, so you should use analog. Don't enable digital out only or else the analogs will be cut off. It makes no difference in the functioning of the digital connections. To get sound out of the rear speakers, hook up the secondary/surround/rear (I don't know the label of them as I don't own Z560s) to the Line-Out on the Audigy then go to the Surround Mixer and set Speakers to 4 Speakers.
 
Also,

Make sure the fade button on the Z560 controller is to the right. Some folks have had the same problem as you and it was because the fade dial was to the left.

Good luck 🙂
 
hook up the black connector to the outout next to the firewire port and green to the output next to it. Don't enable digital output only.
Also remember to turn off the M3D.
 
BTW
What should I set my crossover frequency to with my sb audigy? I have my speakers set to 5.1 (not 4 speakers) which I think is correct with the Logitech Z560's, and need to know what the Crossover Frequency shoudl be set at. Right now it is at 60Hz
 
M3D sort of simulates surround sound by seperating the reverb from the stereo channels in the front. It should work well for music, but for games and DVDs it should be left disabled. 5.1 sound would require a center speaker which I don't think the Z560s include, so 4 speakers should be the best choice in the Surround Mixer (don't worry about the missing .1 indicating the subwoofer as the bass will be sent to the Z560s just fine). I think 100Hz is usually the best crossover frequency, but I am not sure on this for the Z560s. Hopefully someone else can chime in 🙂
 
Cant answer that with any reasonable knowledge except this:

Your ears always know best 🙂

Tune them till they sound the way you like them
