Creative Inspire 5700 Digital spare DIN cable

Hi,
im in the UK.
i've had the above speakers for a while now, but the 9 pin DIN(Female To Female) from the back of the amp module to the soundcard module has broken and im trying to get a replacement.
Maplins dont do a 9 pin DIN at all, and i cant find anywhere to get spares for this speaker system.
any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi there, im wanting the same cable but finding it hard to track down.
Just to add, i need a 9 pin - 9 pin din to connect my creative 6.1 setup to an an external usb audigy 2 VE. Hopefully this would mean no need for the wired remote that connects to the 6.1 speakers? Can anyone confirm this?
Cheers, i'll keep looking.

Looking for 9-pin mini DIN to 9-pin mini DIN GREEN for Inspire 5700 digital

hi guys, I'm looking for this cable.
9-pin mini DIN to 9-pin mini DIN (2 meters - Green)
for my Inspire 5700 digital.
http://images.americas.creative.com/...mall89___6.gif
Currently I'm using the RED version from FPS2000, but I get no sound for Center speakers and SubW. So I suspect both cables are different internally although the connectors are the same.
Anyone knows where to get it in Msia.. or can I buy it from Creative Spore?
OR
Anyone using this set with analog mode, then can sell this DIN cable to me..
Thanks

hi body,where did u get that cable?i need that cable too!!!!!!!!!

Creative Inspire 5700 + X

Which is the best X-fi combination for? Creative Inspire 5700 (5.) speaker. Tom?

Hello!
Thanks a lot for the answer. Now i improved my knowledge, because i already was in despair.
. I have connected my acoustic system and sound card via Analog cable and works only 4 channels: Front L/R and Rear L/R, without Front Center and Sub - as i understood it's correct, right?
2. When i tried to install this driver my system just buzzed and needed to Reboot computer, maybe driver does not compatible with my system.
3. Why does Creative not support Digital/SPDIF for acoustic system like my SPDIF or Digital I/O has better quality of sound then Analog, is not it's
Thanks in advance!

Inspire 5700 Digital DIN Cable

Hi! :smileyvery-happy:
I have unfortunately broken my (9 Pin?) Digital DIN cable. I have been unable to find a cable that could replace my old one. I have had a lot of problems with my cable (no sound/noise etc.). I think those problems have occured because of the fact, that there has been some sort of loose connection.
This cable is my only way to enjoy the full 5.1 audio from my computer, for now I'm only using 4.1 through the analog cables.
I hope that it's possible to bye og replace my old cable...

Inspire 5700 - Digital stopped working

I have the Inspire Digital 5700 speakers and a while ago the digital Din stopped working. I then used the analogue.
Ive just upgraded my soundcard to the Audigy 2 ZS Platinum that requires 3 analogue outputs. Unfortunately the decoder wants 2. The Digital Din still doesnt work.
To test the system, I tried inputting optical from the front box to the rear of the decoder and still no sound.
1. Do all of the digital inputs run from the same internal electronics ?
2. Can I replace my decoder with the DDTS-100 ?
3. Ive ordered the mini-jack to digital DIN cable from creative, but where can I get the mini Din to mini Din ? Creative doesnt sell this. Im in the UK
Thanks

You could contact Customer Support directly to see if they can supply you with the DIN cable.
If you're connecting from the optical output on the drivebay to the optical input on the decoder, you'll need to change settings. This knowledgebase case covers a lot of detail:

Problems setting up a Creative Inspire 5500 Digital 5.1 System

Hello! I've had a problem ever since i've owned my Inspire 5500 Digital system whereby I havent had any functionality from the decoder at all. I have only managed toget it working with my pc however the sound played fine (after a lot of tweaking using the Creative software bundled with my soundcard) however I havent been able to connect any other devices to it, they just dont work! Even playing music on the pc, I cant use the decoder volume control etc. Therefore my dillema is as follows, I have recently built a brand new pc and want to reconnect the Inspire's (correctly this time!), I have the following soundcard: X-Fi Xtreme Gamer Soundcard with the following outputs on the back of the card:
Line Out (Green)Line Out 2 (Black)Line Out 3 (Orange)Optical
Below is a breakdown of inputs/outputs of the Inspire 5500 Digital hardware: Decoder Audio Outputs Front (Green hole)Rear (Black hole)Center/subwoofer (orange hole) Decoder Audio Inputs Analog Line In CoaxialOptical Other Sockets DIN Now im going to list whats on the back of the subwoofer: Power Supply4 pin AC power input Satellite Speakers Inputs Front left socket for front left speaker Front right socket for front right speakerRear left socket for rear left speakerRear right socket for rear right speakerCenter socket for centre speaker Audio Inputs Front (Green)Black (Rear)Orange (Centre/subwoofer) Other SocketsDIN Now im going to list the leads that I have that came with the set (so in theory there should be sufficient equipment to get decoder functionality): x 4 Pin Mains lead x Line In Cable with the three heads on each end (green, Black and Orange) x DIN Cable x Optical Cable(Obviously all the satellite speakers have their own leads that plug into the corresponding ports on the back of the subwoofer) The last set up, I had the following:
The 4 pin mains lead plugged into the back of the subwoofer (this is correct as this is the only mains input)
Satellites connections into their corresponding holes
The DIN lead connected the woofer to the decoder
the Line-In lead ran from my soundcard to the back of the decoder
Where can I possibly be going wrong? The decoder powered up and played pc music however I couldnt control the volume from the decoder. I tried connecting my ps2 (with optical out enabled in the ps2 settings) with an optical lead running from the back of my ps2 into the optical input on the back of the decoder but it didnt work either!
If anyone could please help and give me a step by step guide to simply putting the right wires in the right places, that would be fantastic. Its really doing my head in!!
Thanks again!

Try connecting Your three connections fom your sound card (green/black /orange) directly into your subwoofer inputs (green/black/orange), then, of course, your five speakers into the appropriate outputs on your subwoofer. I have the same setup except, I am using the X-FI Elite Pro which has a built in decoder, and I believe yours does too. Now, you can also look at the top of this page and click on "support". then choose "product documentation", then go through the product finder, then click on the download link, and after agreeing to the terms, choose to save the download to a location of your choice on your hard dri've. now if you just click to open the file it might not load properly, so just in case, right click the folder, and choose "Properties", and on the "general" tab click the tab at the bottom that says "Unblock" button, then click OK, this manual will give you every detailed way?to hook up your speaker system. I hope this helped. Good luck!

Creative Inspire 5700 VS Realtek. SUB NOT WORKING :(

Dear all
I recently beefed up my PC - tried to run my lovely Inspire 5700 through optical on my new Gigabyte motherboard, which didn't work (only got stereo sound) so i tried analoge (which only gave me a 5 speaker sound, no bass). I have tried messing around with the realtek dashboard but I can't get it to work!!
How can I get my bass to work and get a full 5.1 surround sound using the two analogue pins and a realtek software?
Best Regards

D'oh! Well, that explains it. I should like to point out that it is a bit confusing for buyers to introduce a cable standard (nobody else in the business uses that kind auf Digital DIN connection, AFAIK) and then using it for something else altogether. The DIN connection was one of the reasons I chose the Sound Blaster over a competing product. I must say that I'm a bit diappointed since even the Users Guide I downloaded (to make sure I got the right product) states that the DIN socket is used for "connecting digital in-/outputs of multichannel speaker systems".
All in all, it still bugs me that I won't get 5. on my 5700 except for the obvious Dolby Digital pass-through. Any way this might be done via a software update? Maybe somehow integrating a Dolby Digital encoder so I could use the Coax or Optical Out?

Hi,
Thx for the replies.. I live in INDIA and i enquired about the rates of inspire 5700? They are too costly It costs around 8000 indian rupees.And i can't spent that much .
Now i have decided to go for creative Inspire 6.1 6600 It costs pretty less(7000 indian rupees).
Whats ur opinion abt 6600 ? Is it worth that much ?
And once i buy i want to use this speaker set i want to use for both for personal computer and My Television.
Is it possible to use for both?
Thx in advance
Rudra
6600 is quite old model too. You should check out their newer model of speaker like the I-Trigue 5600 if it's available in your country. With this speaker, there's a line in at the remote. With this line in, you can have the TV connected from rca to minijack to the remote and to top this off, the speaker itself have the CMSS feature from creative sound card and with this feature, you can upmix the tv sound to 5. soundfield and it definitely sound good.

Creative Inspire 6700 6.1 speaker cables

Hello,
I'm asking help if Creative could produce me a 10 meter version of the cables hilighted in the image bellow.The original ones are just 2 meters long and I need it in a bigger version.
Is it possible to produce it and send to me by mail? I'm willing to support the costs of production and shipping.
Thanks in advance.
Jorge Lopes

Thanks for the information!
I was really looking for an email address I could use asking this precise issue. Could you tell me? Since my product is discontinued I don't have any kind of direct contact, only premade answers. Additionaly they redirect us to the forums in search of answers.
Thanks in advance.
Jorge
Edit: I've managed to find a webpage with a form, that I filled with my question, this form associated with Creative shop.
I'll wait for they're answer.
In the mine while if you guys could check that out too, I would be very grateful!
Thanks.

Audigy4 plain paired with Inspire 5700 Digital Au

I just bought an Audigy4 plain version yesterday. I'm trying to figure out what I need for the Digital I/O to get surround. I need something so I can get AC3 5. with spdif or the Digital din. I've searched the fourum for hours but it's all very confusing.

Yeah read that and wanted to reply but couldn't. Ok so Din is a no go. That's fine had the same problem with my last card and survi'ved. Only use 5. for my consoles and DVDs anyways. Might want to add that in the sticky that as of Audigy4 the DIN is no longer used. Might help a lot of people out.
So I would plug the mini jack to RCA in the Digital I/O and get DD and DTS for Movies? Might want to explain that in the sticky too.

Where can I get a longer Digital DIN cable? Help!

I need an extension for the digital din cable to my creative inspire 5.1 digital 5700. I can't get it anywhere and my speakers are now connected with the normal stereo speaker cable extension and I can't output 5.1 sound off of my PC cause only 2 speakers are working.Please help me. Maybe someone knows where I can buy such an extension or maybe make one on my own? Andrew

Hi I have the same problem I need to find replacements for the 2 digital 9pin din cables the 5700 speaker sets shipped with.Anyone have any idea,s?Thanks and good luck in finding your cable andrew if you do let me know via the forum reply please.farcry34

Connecting X-Fi Titanium PCIe to Inspire 5700 speakers - digital connection

I am considering purchasing an X-Fi Titanium PCIe card (or possibly, the X-Fi Titanium Fatalty Pro), and want to connect this to my existing speakers: Creative Inspire 5700 (5.).
The speakers currently connect to my Audigy 2 card via a single 3.5mm connector into the Digital Out socket on the sound card. Looking at the specifications of the X-Fi cards, I don't think they have such 3.5mm digital sockets. Can anyone confirm this, and tell me if/how I can connect my speakers?
Thanks,
Gary

OThanks, Juzam.
If I do this, will I still get true 5. surround sound? Will there be any difference between the way the speakers perform between using the optical connection and the 3.5mm digital one (via DIN)?
Thanks,
Gary

How to connect SB X-FI XTREME MUSIC with Creative Inspire 5.1 Digital 5

Hi,
I want to know what I have to do to connect my x-fi xtreme music with my creative inspire 5. digital 5700 due to listen music with all? 5 twiters. I have windows vista ultimate 32bits. Thanks!?JoanMessage Edited by joanantoni on 07-9-200703:54 AM

With your Inspire 5. Digital 5700, your best bet is?using the analog Front and Rear input connections on the decoder and connect them to the X-Fi Xtreme Music front (Line Out )?and rear (Line?Out 2)?output connections and then enable CMSS Music or CMSS Movie Mode on your Digital 5700 decoder which will then give you a 4./5. Upmix. Gi'ven that you don't have a Center connection on the the Inspire 5. Digital 5700, no connection can made to the your Front Center satelite speaker/Subwoofer (Line Out 3) on your X-Fi Xtreme Music card. I'm led to understand that Creative speaker systems do not need Bass Redirection to reproduce proper Bass frequencies on your Subwoofer and not on your satelite speakers but you may want to test this simply enabling and disabling Bass Redirection, on your X-Fi Xtreme Music sound card, to your own personal taste. Alternately, you can concurrently connect your Inspire 5. Digital 5700 via the Coxial Digital/PCM Input to the FlexiJack input/output jack on the X-Fi Xtreme Music and then enable Digital I/O mode for the FlexiJack in the Audio Console found in the Windows Control Panel or?in the Entertainment Mode or Game Mode Consoles. Unfortunately the FlexiJack only provides a 2 conductor connection therefore it only supports 2. Speaker system connections?therefore you will still have to enable the CMSS Music or CMSS Movie Modes on your Inspire 5. Digital 5700 decoder to produce a 4./5. sound upmix. Sadly, no optical connection can be made between your Inspire 5. Digital 5700 and your X-Fi Xtreme Music sound card without the installation of the X-Fi I/O Dri've or X-Fi I/O Console at, of course, additional expense. From my standpoint, the X-Fi I/O Dri've is a good value given the number of external inputs and outputs in offers. Again, it's a matter of what your personal connection requirements are and budget. Hope this hel
ps.
