It's a fledgling fairlead, a Rhode Island roller, a cockeral cam, a lily-livered lifter, a whey-faced wheel*; if you will.

Kinda technical question here.
I have a 5.1 Sony STR DE915 HiFi system that has Toslink input. I want to hook it up to my pc and use it to drive 5/1 speakers. Will I get the true 5.1 surround or will it be emulated inside the Hi-Fi?
Highlight of the setup... Front speakers are running 18" speakers for lows and the sub setup is running quad 10"s.

Yes, you can have 5.1 as long as you have an appropriate source material (DVD,BD, game, etc) and configure it all correctly. DD/DTS, etc and not some reverb emulation.

Yeah, the animation originally played out at one frame per 30 minutes, which made it the world's slowest flip-book. (It also won the Hugo Award in 2014 for Best Graphic Story.)
