    hi..

    I own a 5.1 system with 5 Speakers and a subwoofer.... they all work very well in games...

    but I never get winamp to use the rear speakers or the center speaker..

    do I have to change something in the options or do I need a special plugin?
    or is it even impossible to use a 5.1 system with winamp?

    i never play mp3's in 5.1 on my set up as to me the sound coming out the rear speakers always sounds tinny i would rather stick to stereo for music and crank up the volume :D

    Go to the options, Output Plugins, open the configuration for Directsound Output. Put a tick in Hardware Acceleration.

    See if that makes a difference. I know it does on my nForce2 mobo.
