I got harman/kardon 2.0
I invested in a Audigy the other week, mainly because I needed a GAME port for my wheel.
Can anybody recommend a the best set for about 50 quid?
Dads got Cambridge Soundworks which are okay.

So if I get a digital speaker set will it just be a single connection?
So the sub has an amp and some electrics built in etc etc

yes it'll just be one connector
As far as I'm aware there is no amp, the sub on mine runs off it's own mains cable

don't think it works like that mate....
The card just provides the sounds, nothing else.
The sub has it's own power supply.
