3.3.4.2. Stereo Speakers

This option selects the stereo processing algorithms. Use this option with any stereo speaker
system.

We recommend that you enable the 3D Effects in this mode while listening to music and enjoy the
surround sound effect that is built into your new PC sound system. For more information read the
QXpander section of this manual.

3.3.4.3. Quad Speakers mode

This mode supports two sets of stereo speakers that are evenly spaced around the listening
position. The speakers are set up as front left, front right, rear left and rear right,

3.3.4.4. Digital Output (S/PDIF)

Philips Dynamic Edge soundcard features two digital inputs and one digital output. You can select
either one of the inputs to come out either on the analog or digital (S/PDIF-Out) line. See Digital
Input Sources under Mixer tab.

The S/PDIF Out and the Center/LFE share the same connector. For this reason when you select
Digital Output mode, your analog output automatically changes to Stereo Speakers mode and only
the contents of the front speakers come out of the S/PDIF output. To go back to analog mode,
simply click on Quad Speakers, or 4.1 Channel Speakers mode.
