Does ghetto-rigging a Creative Inspire 5.1 5300 sound system count? 🤣
Wanted something to go with my several Creative cards (Audigy 2 ZS, Audigy 1394, SB Live 5.1 and Audigy SE) and one of my friends dug out that sound system from the trash.
Granted, it was missing the main woofer (which I sourced from a scrapped Altec Lansing, goodness gracious that thing rumbles anything within a 3km radius lmao) and only had one of the tweeters.
Will probably adapt a Samsung home theater speaker set, once I get hold of RCA plugs, as well as 6x 3.5mm plugs (three for the woofer end, three for the PC end!). Maybe not as retro as I hoped it would look, but hey, for a free "DIY" sound system, I'm not even complaining.
BTW, I am also missing the volume knob remote - I managed to bypass it though, by shorting pin 6 with pin 1, and pin 2 with pin 3.
