Advice on buying 5.1 DTS computer speakers

Right now I have a Creative Inspire 5300 speaker set, but my new computer has an Audigy 2 ZS soundcard that I want to use to the max. I'm not that big of a gamer, but I do love to listen to music in surround sound (even if it is simulated using software) and DVD movies.

I'm looking for some DTS speakers with optical/digital input, not typical analog. I don't care how many watts they are capable of doing... I live in an apartment and usually can't use them with the volume very high. My Inspire 5300 only have 6 watts per channel (and 18 for the subwoofer), and that's more than enough.

I do want the extra high fidelity digital speakers provide, and certainly DTS would be great. I'm not willing to spend $500 either, so I want something cheap.

I was thinking on buying the Creative Labs GD580 set (+/-$200), but I've read that when playing music only the two frontal speakers work. That certainly sucks, since right now I can listen to surround music from any mp3 or CD, and I'm not willing to give up that just to have DTS.

So... what speakers do you have? What do you recommend?

I've got mine hooked up through the home reciever, the surround works great and I didn't have to spring for a seperate speaker system. I ran 50 ft patch cables under the house because my computer is in a different room than the reciever and put a couple of auxillary speakers in the office with the computer. Also running it through the reciever means ya don't have to have a powered speakers.

You can get a decent system with all the speakers, reciever and DVD player for a couple hundred bucks or less. Panasonic and Sony both make a model under $200. The optical inputs will probably cost a little more.

Try looking at outpost.com, they are all over the place here (Texas) and have some great deals on all sorts of electronics and computer gear and have fast delivery service.

If you can swing it it is way more versitile. All ya need are a set of stereo cords that plug into an open rca jack at the reciever end and a mini jack to the soundcard on the computer end, a couple of dollars at Radio Shack.
