Creative DDTS-100 Decoder Switchbox

Hey guys, I've got a Creative DDTS-100 Decoder but I'm in need of the switchbox that comes with it as my decoder never came with one. Does anyone know where i can get one from or anyone who has one but don't need it.
thanks

i have the exact same problem
i bought it so that i could use the dolby prologic II from my playstation, everything works except for the sub-signal
if i use the test function on the remote control, the sub does work though
i tried optical in (all 3 of'm), analog in (all 3), different cables, different games, different speakers
i tried it with the optical out from nvidia soundstorm, but no sub-signal either
and when i use the nvidia test function, the sub makes a noise again
i bought this because most reviews where rather positive about this product, and now it's kinda useless, racing / gaming / watching a movie without bass is ridiculous
please give us some help

  • Creative DDTS-100 Decoder - Stereo - Surround

    Hello,
    I ordered the DDTS-100 and stands with the Ddts-100 now before a problem.
    I wanted to connect the dvd-player and tv with the DDTS-100 and enjoy then surround sound, but I heared that this the DDTS-100 not really can do, tune that?
    If I cannot let stereo sound on 5.1 sound, for what is the decoder then good?
    Thanks for your answers.

  • DDTS-100 decoder and switch box

    Hello,
    Well, I'm just beginning(yea, I know another noob ) to get started in the home theatre experience. I bought the G550W 5.1 speakers and DDTS-100 decoder from Creative. My question is do I need to use the switch box as I want to hook things togther through my xbox360? And if not, does it matter which rca plug(red or white) goes into the subwoofer and center speaker plugs on the back of the subwoofer?
    Thanks for any possible help.

    you need to put the 360's rca plug into the decoder and the 3 minijack(orange green black) from the decoder to the subwoofer. the sattelite speakers need to be put in the subwoofers rca plugs!! if you want real surround sound you should get the component or vga able for the 360 because they have a digital optical output, you can connect it with an optical cable to your decoder and push the digital button. your switchbox is not needed

  • DDTS-100 decoder with Inspire 5500 speakers?

    I've been a very content owner of the Creative Inspire 5500 set (decoder and speakers) for two years now, but just recently my decoder has been playing up. I wish to purchase the DDTS-100 decoder and was wondering if I may use the speakers from my present Inspire 5500 set? The speakers are 5.1 - 8W RMS sub, with five 6W satellites. The speakers are similar (if a little less powerful, I think, than those with the Inspire 5700 set. Is this OK? I searched the archives for a mention of people using this set-up, but can't find any posts concerning this. Thanks for any forthcoming help!

  • DDTS-100 Decoder & Gigaworks S750

    Hello, I am in a bit of a problem here. The DDTS-100 decoder has been discontinued. This would have been the perfect solution for me if it was still available. My aim to get the optical output from my tv (lcd hd tuner tv), take it through a median, go through the 4 cables for each of the type of spears and finally to the subwoofer. Now here's my solutions. 1. Wait for the new decoder... Anyone know what it is and when it's coming out? 2. The median could be an pre-amp or an amp, any recommendations? 3. If anyone has any other ideas or has succeeded without the creative decoder. Though the sticky about the 5.1 speaker cable thing on the main page would be a good idea but you will use your sound quality and the loundness dramatically in comparison to the first two solutions above. Your help in this matter is appreciated.

    To connect your Soundblaster NX to your DDTS-100 decoder, and let the decoder handle the DD/DTS decoding, you have to connect a digital/optical/coax cable, from the digital output of the NX, to one of the digital inputs on the decoder.. Also make sure you have set the settings on the souncard, to "digital output only", so that the decoder can decode the encoded digital streams, sendt by the soundcard..
    if you want to connect your soundcard to the decoder via analog cables, and let the soundcard do the decoding it self, you will need to use a 7.1 analog-audio cable, that comes with both the decoder and the speaker system. Connect the audio cable from the analog output on the soundcard, to the input "switch-box", and set the switch-box to "PC-audio". Also make sure you have connected your speakers to the "switch-box".

  • Creative ddts-100 center trouble

  • Price of DDTS 100 Decoder

    Hi
    Pl any one can tell me the Exact Indian Price of DDTS 100 Decoder. Thanks & Regds

    Well if digital DIN isn't supported by the new speakers, you can't go fully digital. I don't even think the newer speakers have digital DIN anymore. The only digital connection you could use is the SPDIF link between the soundcard and the decoder, this would be used for AC3 passthrough. Other multichannel sources would have to be played through analogue connections.
    I've never owned Creative speakers so I can't recommend any, I use the Logitech Z-5500 which are pretty good, but expensive. The TD7700 system has a decoder included, if you got this set, you wouldn't need the DDTS-100.

  • DDTS-100 Decoder with Inspire 5500D 5.1 Speakers (DIN Problem!)

    Dear all,
    I bought a DDTS-100 Decoder today, thinking it will improve connectivity and sound quality of my Inspire 5500D 5.1 Speaker System, but I have run into a bit of a problem. My system has a sub which every speaker is connected to and I have to have the DIN cable connected for controlling the speakers and sub but the DDTS-100 doesn't have a din slot so my speakers will not power on when connected to the ddts-100. Is there a way around this or will I have to take back my decoder. I hope there is a solution as I would be very thankful.
    Yours Thankfully,
    Kyle Hunt.

  • Creative DDTS-100 Crackling Issue

    So I've been using a DDTS-100 decoder for about a year now. However, when I first turn it on, I almost always get crackling. To get rid of this, all I need to do is turn it off and back on again (perhaps several times), and it only seems to occur on the optical inputs.
    I read that this is a fairly common issue. Was there ever a fix for it's

  • Connecting creative inspire 6600 to the ddts-100 decoder

    ok so i was sedused by the idea of getting a ddts-100 to my inspire 6600 speakers,but the fact is i need to know some information:
    the first thing is:will i be able to connect my speakers to the decoder and then to the soundcard?
    my speakers have only RCA jacks for the satellites to connect them to the amp,and the amp have 3 assebled wires,3.5mm ones...my soundcard have also 3 connectors for the speakers,no digital output or optical,..only 3 connectors for the 3.5mm...so will i be able to connect it and then will it be able to reproduce sound like it was doing before?
    2-the decoder says it can decode dolby digital ex,dts es,i don't know if i am saying this right but,sometimes we say decoding in 24bits/96khz .....its the dvd quality right? then will the decoder DECODE the dvd source in 24bits/96khz or is it the job of the soundcard?
    3-will the decoder improve the listening experience in quality or surround?in case of dvd playing i know it would,but in case of listening to music?

    shin8,
    Are you getting proper output if you use the "TEST" button on the remote control?

  • European to UK Adapter work on a Creative DDTS-100?

    Hi
    I got a Creative Decoder DDTS-100 of a friend but it only comes with a European AC power supply that has two round prongs and I need one for the UK mains, so I was wondering if anyone knows whether one of those European to UK Adapters would work with the DDTS-100 and if they would then what strength of fuse would would I need in order to power the DDTS-100?
    I have tried a adapter my mom gave me but it only has a amp fuse inside it and it didn`t power the DDTS-100 so i`m wondering if it would be because the amp on the fuse is too low?
    Thanks for responding.

    Very helpful forum this is. Two posts and not even one helpful reply.

  • DDTS-100 Decoder and Speaker Connections

    Hi,
    I was thinking of purchasing the Creative Decoder DDTS-100 product, but I was just wondering if anyone could answer some questions about the connections on the back of the unit first.
    I already have all the necessary speakers for a 5.1 setup including the Sub, however the connectors for all these speakers are of the two-wire variety (one red, one black), as opposed to the standard 'phono type' connector. Does the Creative Decoder DDTS-100 have the facility to accept the two-wire connection and if not, is there any way to convert the speaker cables into compatible formats for this device? Also, how do non-Creative speaker products WITH the Phono Type connector connect to the DDTS - from the pics of it I have seen, the surround speakers seem to connect via 3 cables on the back of the Switch Box? I'm lost!!
    Many thanks in advance!

    I dont know if its said, but you need an amplifier for those speakers. The DDTS does not amplifies the signal, like those that came from Creative. The amplifier is in the sub's box.
    Another thing that you need is the proper adaptor between de DDTS outputs (green, blak, orange) 3.5mm male to, whatever your amplifier uses.
    In my case, i have trouble finding that cable or cables to convert to RCA. You can use 2 regular stereo adapters for the first 4 channels: green = Left and Right front speakers, black = Left and Right rear speakers.
    For the other 3 channels (Center, Rear center, Sub) you can only use adapter, hence the difficulty. I tried with made for digital cameras (Left-white, Right-red, video-yellow) but it only work partially. I can't get sub from the yellow cable (the other 2 works perfect). I only get subwoofer sound when you preform noise test (from the DDTS).
    Anyone any idea?

  • What can I get to replace a DDTS-100 Decoder?

    My DDTS 100 died a couple nights ago and I can not figure out what to do to replace the thing. Nobody is selling them any more and it is a very crucial part my entertainment system.
    I have a Creative 7.1 speaker setup that I use with my PC and a Xbox 360 via optical (video is through the VGA cable to a shared monitor). I tried routing the 360 through my audio cards input, but I get garbled noise during anything but steady video (downloaded video trailer was tested). What I need is something compatible with the Creative speakers and won't take up a lot of room. A traditional reciever obviously isn't the answer for me and I really don't want to buy a whole new system because this one piece broke. I'd also be perfectly happy with a new DDTS box. Even Ebay doesn't have any results.
    I have spent some time searching around and trying to figure out how to get the 360 working through my audio card. Could I be missing some phantom setting somewhere there?
    Any help would be appreciated.
    EDIT: I found out that my card only supports stereo input through optical so that explains the noise. Are there any cards that can do 5.1 I only ask because searching for that feature has proven to be very difficult.

    You might want to look at the Sound Blaster cards that have the breakout boxes for an optical S/PDIF input.
