Just stereo. The models that do 7.1 are USB only, and are the Raptor HS40, Vengeance 1500, and Vengeance 2100.

They are the best possibility in a price-performance relation. They were not intended as a part of a surround system of any kind, just a pair of fair stereo speakers, but they perform excellent and their sound is superb. I would strongly recommend them for your TV sound system.

High Definition Audio with up to 7.1 surround sound capabilities. Beats Audio is used.

No, these headphones just have two speaker units: right and left. In other words, no surround sound, just stereo sound.

if your buying a full home theater system - yes a 7.1 would be perfect. if you just buying a pair - then a stereo receiver would work.

This system is analog, to get the full 7 channel sound you need seven connections. Or a/v cables and just get sound from 7 speakers as if mono.

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.

Andrew, Unless you have about $500 burning a hole in your pocket, I wouldn't be in a hurry to spend the money on a new receiver. The vast majority of the High Def audio soundtracks are 5.1 surround. Go to the store and look at the discs yourself. True HD and DT 5.1 proliferate. LPCM 7.1 is pretty scarce. So what happens when you input 5.1 soundtracks through your 7.1 setup. Certainly, the rear speakers are offering nothing that the surround speakers aren't delivering, unless you're switching to a non HD audio fomat, such as Pro Logic 2x.

Hi George, this Sony KDL50W800B will only output 5.1 surround sound and not 7.1. This is the audio feature this TV set. -Ely

They're outputs, but yes, it's a surround sound card and has separate outs for stereo speakers and a sub as well as other surround outputs. Good card, especially for the money.

Honestly, I'm not sure. These speakers were purchased solely as part of our home theatre surround sound system.

Here's a possibility: USB Multi-Channel Sound Converter With 5.1 7.1 Surround I haven't tried it yet but there are many positive comments

7.1 and 5.1 have nothing to do with whether the audio is HD or not. In fact, the majority of films/blu-rays are still in 5.1 surround, 7.1 has yet to be widely adopted. So, this means that no, the High-Def audio formats are not downgraded for 5.1 sound.

No, this is a speaker package, you would need to buy a receiver and tower speakers separately. The speakers are ment to be used as a 7.1 setup as surround sound speakers.

The unit has 3 RCA female jacks on the back. One is a live effect and the others are a left and right for 7:2 surround.

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.

They are stereo but both had a terrible buzz coming from them when I got mine. I tried getting it replaced and it took forever and received a new one that had a buzz in the main outs again. I wouldn't recommend buying one of these. They're junk!
