My only grouse is that it would be great if the product can be a little smaller and come with a retractable/adjustable USB connection. I got it working in 5.1, it was weird, first it detected only as 2.0 (pulse) and alsa as 5.1 (aplay -L), so i uninstalled pulse rebooted and i was able to select all. At home I will test it with 5.1 so I will edit this to answer 3 y old question. This also has caused them to rethink about going wireless when analogue can actually sound so good. On 14.10 with pulse it works out of the box for 2.0 (volume knob not) (sound is awesome). Though old technology and already a defunct model, the whole setup made the same group of friends realise that you do not have to spent thousands to enjoy incredible sound. The pinnacle of sound came when I managed to hook up a Cambridge Soundworks 5.1 megaworks with THX Certification and 500 watts of pure RMS power. THe whole front area becomes a huge sound stage. They simply could not comprehend that music can sound so good with strong separation of channels and enhanced through stereo surround from 5 speakers. I was using a system (low budget at $55) with a 25 watt RMS subwoofer and the highs and lows, clarity and deep bass from the system has blown my friends away when played as it matches and even surpassed systems that would cost ten times more. This product is best matched to a 5.1 sound system. However, even if you leave everything at default settings, the sound is already enhanced as compared to the onboard sound chip/card of your notebook/PC. This means that you will never be constrained by the recording quality of any MP3 song or game as you would be able to tune the sound accordingly. The product comes with a mini DSP-like array of features that allows you to tune the sound stage the way you would like it to sound.
