Turn any Windows 10 device into a 5.1 surround sound home cinema, or even 5.1 gaming machine, without needing to install an internal sound card.

I found very little information online on how to set this up, so went about making my own resource when I worked out the kinks.

- Products for under £100 (when making the tutorial) -
Vantec External Sound Card: amzn.to/2QzUjJE

5.1 Surround Sound Tester Download: mysurround.com/test/TestMySurround-en.dbr.wma
^I would recommend playing this through the software VLC (videolan.org/vlc/download-windows.en-GB.html)

Using the Digital Sound Level Meter
You should download the "Pink Noise" sound from this website and play it back through each of your speakers (one at a time, unplug them if you have to) and with the sound level meter held where the listener will be sitting, measure the loudness of each speaker and make sure they are the same. If not, you may need to move them around so that they give off the same amplitude of sound relative to the listener.
