[QUOTE="Shivian, post: 274788, member: 60804"] The Auzentech X-Fi Prelude has a SPDIF/Optical port in one. With the card you get a little plastic adapter that plugs into the RCA socket and converts it to the square optical socket. In fact you get two with the card but I don't know where you'd get more from. As this card is based on Creative X-Fi cards (or at least has the same chipset/capabilities), I wouldn't be surprised if yours is similar.

Note. the two RCA connectors on the far right of this [URL="http://www.auzentech.com/site/images/xfi/xfi_prelude_soundcard_4.jpg"]image[/URL] are what I am talking about.

EDIT: I was just reading the specs off the Creative site and it appears they have done the same thing but just with the 3.5mm jack so it would be a smaller adaptor but if it is written in the specs [I]Optical Out¹ via shared 3.5mm mini jack[/I] then I would have thought they would supply the means to share it!
