please help thanks
 
The input cables for the speakers in your home theater should be the same that plug into your laptop..just unplug them from your home theater console-thingy, and plug them into your (5.1, 7.1, whatever) capable sound card.
 
home theater/sound card question

Its usefulness is for when you have multispeaker setups ... one cable can carry all the signals for the various channels :)
