I need help with Logitech Z-5500 surround sound

[Paul-K]

I bought this

Logitech has taken its award-winning Z-680 speaker system and made it even better. How? By improving everything from the subwoofer to the satellites and adding new innovations like real-time digital sound equalization. The result is the Logitech Z-5500 Digital, a THX-certified, 505-watt 5.1 surround sound speaker system that offers everything you could possibly want... and some things you didn't even know you needed. And once you plug in your PC, DVD or music player, or video game console, you'll never want to listen to anything else.


Now what do i need to make it all work, is it just this 5m HQ Optical TOS Cable TOSLink Lead Digital Audio GOLD | eBay

My wife is desperate for this to get working,because when she came in tonight she said ah fur Fukc sake, so im taking that as a good sign :Laugh:

I would like it to go through my tv (Samsung) or/and my ps3, any help much appreciated.

The Z-5500 has both optical and coax digital S/PDIF inputs. You'll find them on the back of the SoundTouch Control Center [SIC].

I thought everyone knew gold kept the light in better than any other material...
