Hi Guys,
Has anyone of you been successful with 5.1 DTS/AC3 passthrough with USB / Optical out? I have a Logitech z906 which can decode DTS and AC3 but only accepts Optical / Coaxial and when I tried to output 5.1 surround sound from Kodi with 2 USB audio cards (Asus Xonar U3 and Asus Xonar U7) neither of the 2 worked, not even stereo. Can you recommend a cheap reliable USB audio w/. optical out that will pass-through 5.1 AC3/DTS from Kodi? I've seen other recommending Turtle Beach Micro II but there are 2 problems with that: 1. out of stock everywhere, 2. can only output 2 channel stereo so not a big deal.
Thanks in advance.
