How about this speaker?

[Merlin74]

Altec Lansing ADA880 Dolby System (5 pc)
It's the cheapest 5 pc speaker I can find that supports Dolby Digital audio.
Anyone used it before or have experience with it?
How it is compared with otherspeaker which support Dolby Digital audio(e.g. Creative DTT3500)?
Thanks

I am not sure, but it's "speakers", not "speaker"

Search on the web, using the model number e.g. DTT 3500 for the search query. I guarantee you will find a LOT of reviews and comparisons.

Merlin74 - when it comes to the Digital Home Theater systems for your PC, you don't necessarily want to go for the cheapest price out there... to make matters worse (in my point of view) the Altecs are not exacty the most respectable speakers out there... sometimes they come up w/ above average speaker, other times, they come up w/ complete crap... if you want a nice 5.1 solution, I suggest you look into the Midiland 5.1 series(s) and the Yamaha 5.1s

These are respecatble companies and they wil run you a bit more money than the Altecs, I believe, if you want 5.1, these speakers will be something that you'll be proud of, and not something that you will be griping about (speaker pops, speaker hissing, etc, that are usually apparent in Altecs and cheaper models)
