    On some systems, if something is plugged into the front jacks, it disables the rear jacks. The theory is that you would have speakers hooked up in the back and occasionally plug headphones into the front jack.

    In your case... I would double check and unplug the front speakers and see if the rear speakers work. If they do... then the above case is true. In that case... Buy a cheap "Y" adapter into the back jack and you can use both speaker sets. :thumbsup:

    Ah.... got it now. I misunderstood you. Sorry.

    Well, I assume you've tried switching them to test the speakers themselves, right?

    Also... I'm not familiar with Sigmatel configuration but on my home theater, unless the music is recorded in surround, I only hear music in the right and left.

    Can you watch a DVD with surround and see if the center speakers work?
