How are you getting 5.1 from XM? I have an XMpcr Toslink and an Audigy 2NX but the Audigy doesn't do any EQ or DSP on the stereo XM signal so all I get is two channels up front from the XM (grrr!). I was thinking I might have to go MAJOR bucks and get the Alpine PXA-H701 but it looks like I also will need the control unit so we're now around $600 just to get XM with EQ/DSP5.1. Ouch! Pricey and I can't even control it with the PC. Are there any other options to get eq/dsp5.1 from a stereo source?
