I have a Logitech z5500 for my PC that I have it hooked up with an optical audio cable to my sound blaster sound card. Now my PS5 is hooked up to the same PC monitor (LG c4 48). When playing PS5, I just use the TV sound via HDMI. I wanted to know if there is a way to get both my PC and PS5 to work with the Logitech z5500 system.

    Logitech Z-5500 review: Logitech Z-5500 - CNET(excerpt) The Logitech Z-5500 Digital has an impressive assortment of jacks that allow you to connect up to six source devices simultaneously. The control module's rear panel boasts optical and coaxial digital-audio inputs as well as three 1/8-inch analog minijack inputs. You can configure the three minijacks as a group to connect a 5.1-channel PC sound card or independently to connect up to three separate stereo sources. The control module's side panel hosts a 1/8-inch headphone output and a 1/8-inch auxiliary input for playing a device such as an iPod. We've seen home audio receivers with fewer inputs--a testament to the flexibility of this setup.

    My understanding is that i need to install the optical to monitor to enable the PS5 and have the line in for front, rear and center hooked up to my sound card then my Logitech port. I don't like to do it that way cause I think the sound will be slightly diminished if I don't use the optical. I need to see if there is an adapter from Coaxial to optical? Then I will use that port for the PS5 and keep the other optical via PC...
