Not sure if this is a very basic question for this community, but I am finding it real hard to determine if the sound card in my computer supports 5.1 speakers?
The Device Manager -> Sound, Video and Game Controllers just show Realtek High Definition Audio, and I am unable to find any additional clues in the Properties.
I do have 5.1 speakers - and a quick internet search gives me lame answers like "check if you have 5 speakers with 5 audio jacks" which is not what I want, as the speaker will be unable to play 5.1 sound unless the card supports it.
Kindly let me know if any additional system configuration details would help. I am using Windows 7 Home Edition.
You should also check with your manufacturer's documentation as well. – Matej Voboril – 2014-04-03T15:13:01.583
