Does it works as true 5.1

I'm not sure - sound comes out of all the speakers, but it seems more like basic stereo to me.

I do not believe so. It just makes all the speakers operate in a fuller 2.1 arrangement. It costs quite a bit more for an adapter to use these speakers in nonsound card 5.1.

It works great in the elite-7 hdi, so I would have to assume it would work in the 5. You just have to go into the setting and change it from lowrance to the navionics.

I checked with the local Nikon professional photographers representative, He checked and found that Its version 5.1 and yes it can be updated.

Yes. I got it to install on my 8.1 and it seems to be working just fine. Hope you find that helpful.

Yes it is. By the time I had it officially you could upgrade to 7.5 but with unofficial software you could upgrade to 7.8

I'm running 10.7.5 and it's great. Don't know if it is backward compatible.

Yes, in this case, your TV output is the weakest link and is down-converting all of your content to 2.1. In order to get true 5.1, you'll need to connect each of your devices separately. I ran into this exact problem :(.

Yes...Very frustrating..I can get sound with Stereo, but not 5.1...Really makes the HD feeds useless...

I believe yes, I just received an update last week and mine is operating under 7.1.2

Yes, the BD55 will "downmix" to 5.1. The additional 2 audio "channels" in 7.1 are matrixed from the 5.1 mix so you won't miss anything with a 5.1 setup.

yes but if you can buy just a little better 5.1, I like it but the sound turns off and the hard drive is loud when you first turn it on

I believe so. I wanted to do about the same thing since I am a 3D developer. But when I ordered it, Amazon came back with it was out of stock and NO Estimated Date of Delivery. So I had to downgrade and get the 5.1 version.

Yes . You have 1.0 e 2.1 . Two ports, one of each. mine worked only 5 months. was great while work.

Yes! 5.1 still works fine, I haven't tested 7.1 but I expect the original audio stream is passed straight through so anything that works over HDMI should work through the box.

I believe 5.1 is the max supported (I am using 5.1). I don't believe the cards are THX certified any longer. In short No and No. :)

No. The minimum OS is 10.4.x (10.4.11 recommended). The hardware required is USB 2.0--it is not backwards compatible with USB 1.1. Hope this helps.

Yes. It does. Been using beta 9 version and full version without any trouble.
