Creative ZiiSound T6: Cheap Surround Sound for Computers

The Creative ZiiSound T6 looks like a great, REAL cheap surround sound system for computers. It's nice and small, compact, and wireless. You can use it via bluetooth as well as USB and iPod/iPhone. Sounds pretty nifty to me, but even cooler? Comes with a 5.1 encoder app to turn your computer's sound into surround. Check out what home theater blog "Big Picture Big Sound" had to say. 

ZiiSound T6 is part of Creative's well-received Pure Wireless speaker family, compatible with a wide range of Bluetooth stereo sources, including PCs, Macs, tablets, laptops and even netbooks, in addition to the iPhone, iPad and select iPods. Pairing the speakers to a device is quick and easy, and the high-performance apt-X codec assures low latency in wireless configurations.

It is also positioned as the new flagship product in the ZiiSound lineup, but going a step further with support for 5.1-channel content when we use a wired USB connection. (A 5.1 software decoder is required for this application.) The top drivers on the full-bandwidth satellite speakers are swivel-mounted, for rear-channel effects which can take advantage of wall reflectivity, or they can be angled for an enhanced stereo effect. The satellites also feature audiophile-grade aluminum drivers.
