Hi, I am in the process of getting one of the newly released PowerMacs, and I've started researching the possibilities of surround sound under OS X. I am in doubt as to wether I can continue to use the speaker setup I have now.
I will appreciate any links/suggestions as to what I need to do in order to hook up my setup on my PowerMac. Currently, the setup is a 5.1 System from Cambridge Soundworks, and as far as I can tell it can decode AC-3 digital audio. Is it possible for me to keep this? What PCI cards/companies exist that can help add surround sound to my PowerMac? I have tried researching this on the net, but have been frustrated in my attempts.  Dan |

 I've also been reseaching 5.1 for DVD authoring. Can you bypass the Dolby encoding? My Sony home theater amp actually has a set of inputs that bypass the encoding. Seems like most of the pros are using a bass management system to route low frequencies to their subwoofers.
