First some background :

I have this CM Storm Sirus True 5.1 Headset.

But what I want is to connect an external 5.1 speaker system to my laptop .

What I have in my mind is since the headset already has a good soundcard , can I find some 10-Pin Mini DIN cable (Male) with 3 Surround Audio (3.5) Exit ports , Spliced ? If you anything like that please le me know .
I Know the DIN is Digital and the 3.5 is analogue , so a convertor should sit in between , I wouldn't mind if the price is fine .
Any links to the components or something will be highly helpful :)
