    Looking for those who have a 5.1 setup


    I have a set of Z506 and I cant seem to get the two rear speakers to work.
    I double checked my work and still nothing.
    I already have windows setup to run in 5.1, and even there the two rears wont play a sound.

    HELP its driving me insane.

    I have a Z87 sabertooth.

    I run my 5.1 setup through my video card via HDMI, to my LG Home Cinema, and just set the sound settings on the LG.

    I suppose you're running through Realtek then? After configuring it's settings in all tabs(using the test button too) and configuring your receivers settings make sure you're playing 5.1 media to test it.
