OK, my Audigy 2 has a digital out on rear, and it has analog outs too...
I connected using minijack to dual RCA to connect digitaly to Marantz SR6300 receiver.(just one rca is in receiver).
IT WORKS. AM I HAPPY - NO!

Sound using CMS Player is awful and lacking in dynamics and detailompared to winamp and POWER DVD.(mp3's)
When using EAX effects sound gets either way too crisp or it gets distorted.
Sound in games tends to output half of the effects while others heard on headphones are way too quiet.
I set output to 96khz(Marantz is 24/192khz)
I set digital output only.
I set the SPDIF-passthrough mode.
I dont seem to get 5.1 sound from some games.

Please tell me if i did this connection right, and what should I do?
How to connect it opticaly( I have no audigy drive)?
THANKS

The Audigy 2 cant encode multichannel sound to a digital format, so to make it work you will have to plug it with the 6.1 analog.
