The general consensus is a big no no. How much does that cost? You will be able to get better for the money.

If you splurge a little bit, you could grab Alessandro MS-1's for $99. They'll perform far better than the AudioFX.

Tell me about it. Over the past 2 months, I've purchased so many items it's getting rather scary.

Now i have my 5.1 plugged into my soundcard right now, but im getting alittle tired of unpluggeing the surround and plugging in my headphones. I have an headphone jack on the receiver of my x-530's... it's safe to assume that by plugging in my 500's ill lose sound quality. but how much?

probably only a little bit. it should pretty much be a direct transfer. so it will probably be a little distorted but the signal should also be stronger

I thought so too. I was sure it was pretty much a simple line that splits at the deck. the deck is powered from the bass. but i wasn't sure the quality of the line, and weather or not it would be a HUGE difference vs a small one.
