I've just got Midiland 8200 speakers and I'm trying to hook them up. I want to use the digital coaxial output from sound blaster. I'm using RCA - mono mini jack cable. I connected everything and I don't hear anything. In the speakers menu I've check digital out, and 5.1 speakers, in the ADS-2000 decoder digital input. Everything works OK when I use analog R/L RCA outputs on the audio card. What can be wrong? Audio card, cable, ADS-2000 decoder? I reinstalled drivers, but it didn't help...

You are plugging the minijack into the right jack right (last one, next to the gameport)?
You might also try another minijack/RCA adapter/cable. I had trouble with an all metal Mono adapter - I switched to a stereo minijack/RCA cable and it cleared up most of a hum problem I was having...you can only use the right channel for the digital connection.
When you get it connected - let me know if you hear a hum through your speakers when you have the digital cable attached to the ADS2000...
