    4.1 or 5.1?

    Which one should I get, the 4.1 or the 5.1 suround sound speakers? Is the 5.1 worth the extra money and can you tell a difference? Where can I get speaker stands to hold the speakers up off the floor? I will be using them for TV and PC Gaming.
    Any replys are welcome!
    (I will probaly be using these with the Audigy X-Gamer)

    4.1 is where you have 2 in front of you, and 2 in back. And a subwoofer (its better to put it under your desk your seat, so you can hear/feel the low frequency sounds better).

    5.1 is where you have 1 speaker in front of you. 2 on each site of it, 2 on back and a subwoofer.
