Inspire T6100

I have recently purchased the inspire T6100 5.1 system. I believe my laptop has an analog 2 sound card, what do I need to connect and use the T6100. Can the same be used to connect the speakers to my dvd player?Are the speakers compatible with an ipod? Requesting early replies as I can't wait to use the speakers.

If you want 5.1 from your laptop, your best bet is a decent usb 5.1 external sound card. I think the "Live! 24-bit External" is such an example, but am not sure. A usb2 one would probably be a better bet anyway. Bear in mind, if you are not planning to do much surround on the laptop (ie, no dvds, gaming etc) then I would just hook the stereo from the built in sound up to your speakers. It will still sound great, just from two speakers.
As for the dvd player, you need to have a look and see if it has 5.1 outputs (lots of rma/phono connections). If it does, you just need phono to 3.5mm jack leads to hook up to the speakers. If it only offers stereo and digital outputs, you would need something like the ddts-100 to decode it. This would have the advantage that it would act as a switch for the dvd/laptop and would upmix the laptops stereo too.

  • Help setting up Creative Inspire T6100 (5.1) to HP Laptop

    Hi I recently bought Creative Inspire T600 (5.) speakers. I am unable to connect this to my HP DV6T laptop having only one input for speakers where as creative t600 has 3 pins in black, orange and green colors. I am stuck here. Could anyone please tell me how to connect the 5. speakers to my laptop? Appreciate your help.
    Arun.K.S

    Not really 100% sure (I only have a Creative T3030 2.1 that has a single 3.5mm jack) but from everything that I Googled, it looks like a stereo 3.5mm to RCA adapter and a Logitech 5.1 Game Console Adapter should work.

    But to be safe, it might be best to check with Creative and see what they recommend for connecting it to the iMac.

  • Creative Inspire T6100 5.1 Speakers problem

    Hello. I have Creative Inspire T6100 5.1 Speakers with SB Audigy Live! 24-bit installed Sound Card (it supports up to 7.1 speakers). Also I have Stereo Surround CMSS 3D settings (EAX)enabled. However when I'm listening to music or playing games my Rear Left speaker makes no sound. Before I had problem that Rear Right wasn't working (however rear left and right sound was on rear left speaker), but after replugging Rear Left doesn't work. Any ideas what might be the problem?
    Thanks for reading...
    EDIT:: I tried changing Rear Left and Rear Right speakers with each other in Subwoofer (where it connects) and Rear Left is working properly.

    Hi all do you have any idea to solve my problem?
    Currently, I'm using the P5800. My problem is sub can't working. I fix together with SB24Bit External sound card.Previously is working. I'm very proud with the sound,after I decrease the master volume and bass level volume my sub suddenly quit.what happened actually?
    -Is that mean I need to change the sub speaker or the coil inside the magnet core is burned?
    -or maybe my component circuit like ic,capacitor,diode burned?
    If I plug n unplug the power to the sub,I can heard that 'bump'. Is that mean my circuit in good condition or maybe the charge and discharge for capacitor?
    Please answer me...
    Thank You

  • Inspire t6100 speaker with iMac (OS X 10.6.6)

    -I just bought a new iMac and already having Inspire T6100 and Creative X-Fi Sound Card.
    The iMac has Headphone/optical digital audio output (minijack) in it but I have almost no idea how to make iMac work with the T6100 speaker.
    Any help wold be appreciated.

    Hi,
    You need a 6.1/7.1 capable sound card that supports analog connection for the Inspire T6100. I don't think an iMac have those connectors.

  • Inspire T6100 reducing bass power

    Ok, I'm buying new 5.1 system and there's 2 options in mind: Inspire T6100 or Logitech X-540.
    I would buy T6100 but, I read a lot of comments that a bass is too strong and it can't be reduced even when it's on minimum. I have Audigy 2, so, is there a chance to lower a bass sound by a software that comes with Audigy 2? I think it's a great system but if bass volume can't be reduced i'll have to buy X-540 (who is not that good in reproducing music, but angry neighbours VS a little lower quality sound...).
    btw. i had Inspire T5400 and i was very satisfied with them. I suppouse that T6100 is better...

    Anyone have these speakers?
    Could I reduce bass volume with this option:

    How many line out/s does your Mac Book Pro have? Note that you need an audio device/sound card?that supports 5.1/7.1 connection in order to hook up the Inspire speakers.

  • Creative Inspire T6100 - I got a problem, pls help me!

    I just bought a creative Inspire T6100 system, but I got a strange problem.
    I can hear just from the rear left and center speakers, all the others are muted. Every wire is perfectly connected to my phase 22 with 3 jack connectors. I tried to disable the basic soundblaster in the motherboard(I got an asus P5K), but it's the same... nothing changed...
    Can someone help me pls?

    Hi Freddy I read your problem , here I have a solution for you . If you are using your motherboards existing inbuilt sound card then you arerequired to check the balance level. to check balance level. to check the balance you please click on start > control pannel > then click on " sound & audio devices"? In this menu click on " Advance" here you will found balance level of both master volume & wave . checkbalance sould be at center level. secondly go into your cards application software and select 5.1 or 6.1 speakers,to check the sound take a headphone and attach each output of sound card if sound is coming both channels then it meanssound card is ok. Check your T6060 speakers audio leads should be fully Inserted into sound cards socket. If your are using creative sound card then set it to factory default setting and check the problem will be automaticaly solved. Creative T6060 speakers are 5.1 speakers & it requires proper sound card . It is recomended to install creative Sound blaster5.1 or Creative Audigy Value sound card for exelent performance.

  • Creative Inspire T6100

    my old creative set up has broke and now it is time to renew. my problem is.... i have a 5.1 decoder amp it sends the sound out separately to front L,R, back L,R, center and sub. this allows you to power them all separately. i am considering buying 2 sets of the creative inspire t6100 one set for the back L,R and one for the front L,R. and i would like to know what other users of the t6100 think of the system more to the point how many users have had problems. i am reserved on weather creative speakers last very long as my 2 sets of fps1600 have broke ( set the sub went and the other sounds like it is under water) and my 2.1 i-trigue 3200 (5 months old) (center speaker on my set up) is having problems with the wired remote. i am reluctant to switch companies as i think when working properly creative have an amazing sound. i would like to know if any one has any opinions on logitech (rival company if you will) as i have never heard anything from their speaker range. http://images.europe.creative.com/is.../dot-clear.gif

  • Speaker inspire t6100 sound worst!!!!?

    The subwoofer went wrong since I bought. Its sound roar like a bull everytime I use. I am starting to lie myself that maybe that speaker is originally like that. I have a desktop computer with creative sound card (live blaster 24). Even I use it with mp3 player or other laptop with sound 5.1 still roar like that. Is it because it was damaged since It was in the package when I bought? anyone have problem like me? pls help. I bought from vietnam because I live in Cambodia. Maybe it went wrong since they transfer to me? I can't compare my speaker with the other because It was not existed in Cambodia. Nobody imported this product.

  • Creative Inspire T6100 Connection Problem ...

    Hi,
    I have just purchased the Creative Inspire T6100 and intended on using them for my Laptop, I am not so good with technology but I bought these speakers purely because of the good reviews it had.
    The PROBLEM I have is that when I connect the 3 wires i.e. Black, Green and Orange , I only have space for one headphone jack on my Laptop as a result sound only comes through two of the fi've speakers. I realize that all 3 headphone jacks must be plugged into my laptop, but I simply do not know where to place the other two.
    Therefore I was wandering is there some sort of device which would allow me to connect those 3 wires into my laptop. Perhaps some sort of 3 to converter
    (Please remember I am a complete Novice on technology)
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thank You

  • Linking Inspire T6100 to laptop

    Please help me
    i have bought a Inspire T6100 speaker system to link to my laptop and i cannot do so. It says on the box laptop compatible. If anyone has any information please let me know thanks

    Jmax,
    You will need an USB sound card or something similar that supports 5.1 audio output. That single audio jack on your laptop isn't going to give you full surround. Check the documentation of your laptop to find out the audio capability of the audio device.

    for my vision m but i have read some reviews that you need 3 audio inputs to get all the speakers working so there isn't much point in buying them unless any of you know if there is an adapter or speakers like this in the same price range which will work fully with my vision m. also would these speakers work off a tv?thanks very much

  • Probelm with Creative Inspire T6100

    Hello everyone, I'll really appreciate it if someone could help here. Just bought a new PC with sound card on board.Motherboard is: GB P35-DS3 /P35/LGA775The sound card is Realtek High Definition Audio. Along wiht the PC I got a 5.1 channel speaker system - Creative Inspire T1600. I installed the latest drivers for the sound card, also made sure the speaker system is plugged into the sound card slots as per the user guide and yet there is no sound coming out at all from the speakers. I also tried plugging out the speaker system and plugging in a normal pair of headphones, still no sound?.... I have re-installed the sound drivers a few times and there is no indication the issue is with the driver. Please help. Thanks a lot

    Hey, thanks for your reply but I've figured it out. It was a problem with the sound card driver... It works now and it's great!
