Z560 - how does 4.1 hook up?

I'm looking at getting the Z560 speakers and still debating on the sound card, santa cruz vs. audigy. But there a plenty of threads on that. I haven't seen the inputs on the Z560's, on the back of the SC I see that there are 3 analog outputs, a L/R, rear L/R, and sub. Do each of these 1/8" jacks run to 1/8" jacks on the Z560's? Are there other ways to connect?
 
As far as I can remember, It connects like most other non digital 4.1 systems, two miniJack plugs going to the Front and Rear outputs on the soundcard. I don't think there's any other way to do it.

The Sub jack on the santa cruz and audigy is used only when you are connect an non-digital 5.1 speaker system to your card. It outputs the signal for the center channel and the LFE/Sub channel.

Yep.

And the speakers connect by XX Gauge wire by clipping them in place.
