How can it be 7.1 if there is only one speaker jack (on the last picture) - and it looks like regular stereo jack

That doesn't make a difference. 7.1 just means there are 7 speakers (or sources of sound) there are 3 speakers in each ear muff for the left and right and then 1 in each for the center speaker. They also both have significant bass. This is why they are so large.

I don't even use the dongle. I really think the 7.1 is ineffective when playing an online game and you actually have to know where enemies are. I'm sure it sounds great for adventure games and things of that nature such as Assassins Creed or any of the like. But when gaming on PC with Counter Strike and the 7.1 enabled, I found it way too difficult to pinpoint an enemies location as the 7. emulation blended all the surround together and made it harder to figure out where they are.

It is obviously not a real 7.1 system, and to anyone looking at this for anything other than the PC, you should NOT get this unit. The Logitech G230, similar and cheaper is the way to go for use with any console (like plugging into a consoles controller (PS4/WiiU/Xbox)

No there are two which connect to a USB convertor. It is really good 7.1 effect on AC4 and BF4.

It is virtual 7.1. This headset really only has 2 speakers, but you must install the Logitech software to make the surround sound work. Also, you must plug in your headset using the USB connection.

It uses software to create an immersive 7.1 experience. While I haven't played CS:GO, I have used it for BF3/4, COD, Arma, and many horror games and found the surround to be pretty well done. The headset only has two speakers (one on each side) which is good as there are less points to break. If you search on youtube for "Virtual Barbershop" you will see how software can make stereo into a '3D' experience. While it isn't as good as having a Logitech 7.1 sound system, it does do its job very well.

Same thing happened to me. I ordered this item thinking it was Klipsch Quintet V as pictured and returned it as the vendor sent the older version. Amazon refunded, but it's very disappointing.

I actually contacted Onkyo about a similar thing. I want to run a 7.1.2 and use an amp with the RCA line out jacks. All I need to do is get an amp to power from the RCA jacks and I'm good to go. You should be able to run it with a rear pair and 4 atmos speakers, but something would have to be doubled up on the actually timing with the Dolby computing. It won't be a true 7.1.4...but you can run a true 7.1.2 with this system and an amp to power the additional speakers.

What exactly do you mean that a 7.1 system will never be used? I was planning on getting a 7.1 and putting 4 speakers in the living room with the TV and two in the adjoining kitchen area. No? Do you still get surround sound with 7.1 and are the Onkyo speakers really that bad? I was looking at either the 7200 or 6200.

Press 'GUI Mode' on your remote, scroll down to settings then over to highlight 'Speaker' then "SP Pattern', just as Steve explained, and choose '6.1' from the graphic choices. I purchased this receiver and upgrade my speakers so I have the 7.1 setup. Very satisfied with this receiver.

There is a line in jack on one side, but no line out (headphone) jack. This is generally the case for most external speakers.

Funny thing... I own this monitor. The jack isn't labeled and nowhere in the box, documentation or CD does it say what it is. Matt's correct. It's 1/8" audio out.

I use a 7.1 system. Center speaker is an old sony that was leftover from one of those DVD/7.1 combo jobs.

Yes, good question. I have a 7.1 sound system in place and don't want to loose the quality I have. I wouldn't mind losing all the speakers though. If it isn't true 7.1, they shouldn't call it that.

there is not seperate audio output port like 3.5mm jack, it has an inbuilt speaker of 3w.

There is only one speaker, but the audio output jack on the back of the unit delivers a good stereo signal to headphones I often use when watching videos late at night.

Andrew:>Here's the problem: the stupid Pioneer certainly has 7.1 OUTPUTS to the 7 speakers and the sub, but the INPUTS are only 5.1You can still use the 7.1 outputs to the 5.1 inputs; just don't use surround back left and surround back right.

There are 2 optical connections and one 1/4" or 3/8 stereo input. I am just not sure of the size, but is the normal speaker sized jack on a pc

the source should be 7.1 i guess. else we can play a simulation of 7ch stereo. pl check if your DVD/BD is written as 7.1 ch? If its 7.1 ch recording and you are not getting 7.1 then check Speaker distribution. if everything is fixed per its position. Can use odyssey auto adjuster. finally, do you use anyother system which takes care of distribution of spound to speakers? ( like bose acoustimass?) check that too if it i s7.1 too. thanks

how can you make a fair comparison between a 5.1 system and a 7.1 system? no matter how great the speakers you buy with the 607, you will still only have a 5.1 system.

Well its 7.1 surround sound but it works on 5 I suggest being able to support that at least

Hello, No, this unit has the typical aux type connectors that are used for 5.1/7.1 sound cards: These are 3.5mm Minijacks, they are color coded as follows: Green: Front Speakers Pink: Microphone Orange: Subwoofer and Center out Black: Rear Surround Speakers for 5.1 and 7.1 systems Note: This unit also has a USB Connector that is required to power the unit. I hope this information helps.
