help connecting 5.1 speakers to my roku ultra

TLDR want to hook up the logitech X540 speakers to my roku ultra for native true 5.1 surround sound audio rather and having to use the matrix mode button for simulated 5.1

so i have a logitech X540 5.1 speaker setup, alongside a roku ultra and a very old 2010 sanyo DP42841 tv. the issue is the tv only has, Analog Stereo Audio Out (L/R) Jacks the red and white jacks. and while i could simply use the matrix mode button for simulated 5.1 surround sound the issue here is i watch a lot of shows like the blacklist which have loads of conversations which can cause issues such as**(Hit-or-Miss Upmixing):** Because Matrix mode is an algorithmic guess rather than a true discrete 5.1 soundtrack, it can occasionally make background music or sound effects feel louder or more forward than the director intended, while leaving the center vocal track fighting against ambient noise

so what options do i have aside from simply plugging these speakers into my TV

im thinking i need some sort of audio extractor but im not sure

is this monitor any good thoughts?

so back in 2023 i bought an ASUS TUF Gaming 27” 1080P Monitor (VG279Q1R) - Full HD, IPS, 144Hz, for $195 so far my only gripe with it is that the brightness for the leds could be a tad better but overall im happy with it back when i bought this monitor i was still on my old 1080p gaming setup with an rx 6600 and a ryzen 3900x im not on a 9070 asrock challenger and a 7800X3D

this is my first ips display and my first display to go over 75hz refresh rate thoughts im just wondering what others think of this monitor in terms of its specs

So I did my annual section 8 recertification and I got a packet in the mail this evening

Can someone look at this first page and tell me what it means I don’t know exactly how section 8 works my take on it is that this first page is telling me how much my new rent is going to be moving forward if I re-sign my lease, but I could be mistaken

need help with some simple soldering on an OG XBOX REPAIR

so a few years ago i bought a TSOP modded original xbox version 1.2. the xbox's clock capacitor leaked causing trace rot. the previous owner removed the clock cap, and bodged a wire on the mobo to bypass the trace rot issues, in order to get the system to be able to power on and work properly. in order for the fan to work properly the previous owner soldered the black ground wire directly to the metal shielding inside the console.

what i want to do is remove this wire and remove the stock fan so i can install a nexus fan upgrade.

the issue is idk how to solder nor do i know what tools i need i.e. what type of solder iron or solder etc below is a link to the fan mod i ordered as well as pics detailing the issue i want to try to fix my friend from outta state who did a full recap thinks the ground wire was soldered to the metal shield in order to complete the circuit and allow the fan to properly function as it was intended

i simply need someone to tell me what type of soldering iron and solder i need preff a cheap one since im new to soldering and i also need someone to guide me or at least tell me what wire needs to be soldered to the shielding and how i remove it from the connector plus splice it etc
