Ok, I have had my Sony SRS-Z500 speakers for a logn time now, and want to upgrade to a 5.1 solution. I am pretty sure that I am going to get the Logitech Z-5300e 5.1 THX Certified Speaker System (http://www.newegg.com/app/viewProductDesc.asp?description=36-121-121&depa=0), but I am unsure about hwo I will power those speakers. So here are my two questions:
1. Does my Sound Blaster Live! support 5.1 audio? Here are 2 pictures of it, I got it second-hand so I don't know. The model is "SB0060", and the top connectot reads "Digital output":

2. What option should I choose for powering these:
a. MSI K8N Neo2 Onboard
b. Audigy 2 ZS GAMER (would prefer not to spend the money on this)
c. Sound Blaster Live! (If it supports it)
Thanks in advance,
