After searching through manuals and this forum I haven't quite found the information I'm looking for.

I'd like to connect the audio jacks on my front bezel (Antec Sonata) to either my SB Audigy (1) or to my motherboard, a Soyo KT333 Dragon Ultra (C-Media Sound). The Sonata has and Intel 10 pin audio connector and it also has individual single pin connectors.

Here is a listing of the individual pin connectors from the front bezel:

1. Microphone Power Pin: Connect the MIC connector to this pin.
2. Microphone Input Pin: Connect the MIC-BIAS connector to this pin.
3. Ground Pin: Connect the AUD GND connector to this pin.
4. Front Right Speaker Out Pin: Connect the FPOUT-R connector to this pin.
5. Front Left Speaker Out Pin: Connect the FPOUT-L connector to this pin.
6. Rear Right Speaker Out Pin: Connect the RET-R connector to this pin.
7. Rear Left Speaker Out Pin: Connect RET-L connector to this pin.

Basically I'd like to know if anyone has hooked up the front audio jacks to a soundcard how did you do it. If anyone out there knows where, if any, the headers the above pins are on an Audigy, that would be most helpful.
I'm pretty sure my mobo doesn't have the necessary headers, as the only audio header I can locate is for an extension card (SPDIF inputs and C/S outs) for the onboard audio.

I guess the next question would be, if I can't hook the front connectors up to an Audigy, what cards might have the headers I need?

Any advice would be apprecieated...

Well I'm pretty certain that I don't have the right headers on my mobo or on my Audigy. It also appears that the SB1394 header on the Audigy is not an actual firewire header as it has no power pins...oh well, at least I have front usb ports :o

btw...the sonata is a great case...cool and quiet, now I just have to decide how I want to mod it :p
