Your surround system is Pro Logic or something earlier. Replace it.

Actually, its not that early, I just got it(New)!

Don't know if this will work:

Will a Creative Labs EMU1212 convert for you?

It has 24 bit SPDIF port built in and they cost $100 to $200

From experience using them, that 24 bits is REAL, well, at least 23 of
it.

I'm not associated with Creative Labs, or gain from their sales.

Originally I have evaluated the performance of both the EMU0404 and
the EMU1212 and started using their products when the 1212 exceeded
performance of my $3,500 Data Acquisition system! Since then, have
used the 1212 several times in different projects.
