[edit] SPDIF connection

I have an Audigy 2 with a connector called "Digital Out". The manual describes it:

Digital Out Jack: 6-channel or compressed AC3 SPDIF output for conection to external digital devices or digital speaker systems.

The actual jack seems to take a plug that is like a 3.5mm stereo plug with one extra conductor ring. What the heck is that? How can it be called SPDIF without supporting one of the three specified SPDIF connectors (TOSLINK, BNC, or RCA)? There appears to be a cable that has such a plug on one end and a "DIN" connector on the other to connect to certain specific speakers. DHR 06:57, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

NOTE: The use of the top 3.5 mm Digital Out jack on the sound card requires an adapter that Creative sells. The adapter has the 3.5 mm (3-ring + tip) jack on one end of the cable, and a small 'breakout box' on the other end. The 'breakout box' has a pair of S-PDIF I/O ports, and a pair of TosLink I/O ports on it. The Creative part number for this item is CT4800, and the description is "Creative Input/Output Module". —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.113.43.179 (talk) 17:30, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Audigy 2 Platinum eX

[edit] One card left out? Or am I misinformed?

My own Audigy card shows up in both windows and in Linux as a plain vanilla Audigy with no letters or other designation. It came installed by default on an old Gateway machine. I don't see any reference to this particular card on the Audigy page. You can still go to the Creative Labs website and download the documentation for this exact card so.....hmm.

My Audigy 2 ZS comes up in Windows as a Audigy 2. The drivers don't distinguish between Creative's marketed bundles. What is the model number on the card? (SBxxxx) --Swaaye 02:30, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
