correct me if im wrong (im making assuptions here)... i assume the cable you showed goes to the back of th lil controller thingy?!?! if so then you have 5 wires coming out of the controller to each speaker - correct? if so, why cant you simply buy longer speaker cable mate? with thsi you could also buy better quality speaker cable as most manufacturers bundle absolute crap with their systems......
This is again assuming you dont mind having the contrller close to your pc
Any help?

na its not like that. the speaker wires go to the sub and the wires are long enough. then a power goes from the controller to the sub( not very long and connected to the controller so cant be made bigger) and then there is the wired i showed going from the controller to the PC, therefore the only thing that can be extended is the green, orange and black wires. there is also a power cable from the sub 2 a plug but theres no problem with that. sorry if iv explained that badly

hope you understand.

PERSONALLY MATE ID BUY YOURSELF A
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Creativ[....]eNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
This will allow you to link your stuff up better mate

if your speakers does have a digital input then this would do you proud...... These are old things mate but tbh they are well better than using any rear connection

also they offer you with the option of linking your pc up to many other things
check tho that you can link your speakers up via a digital (optical or co-axial) cable before buying

i have a audigy 2 card and mine has a optical out on teh back.... but if yours is the one pictured you ahvent got and optical or co-axial point at the back
But with that bay (that goes in teh front of your pc) you will have
The bay links to your existing card by a ribbon cable which is also included in the auction.... i'm actually really tempted to get myself one of those babies, especially as they are so cheap - back in teh cay that bay and soundcard would of set you back a cool £175........
Short to that mate, id take the cable into say... 'maplins' and show them and say i want a 5 or 10 metre one

that way they will say to you either: 'yes sir, right this way'... or 'impossible matey - they dont make them'.....
Personally - i'd buy that bay off ebay mate.... solve yourself a lot of problems and mak the connection stronger

(better music quality i reckon)
