I read the guide this guide "http://www.digit-life.com/articles/livetolive51/" last day.
it would be more easy to make a software modification. Do you agree?

This task is very dificil for people without experience.

softwar mod? you still won't be able to get an extra analogue output with out building a digitial to analogue converter
but if you have digital speakers - use the kX drivers, and then connect RCA ports to the relevant output pins and ground pins on the AUD_EXT connector

I use KX drivers 3537 version. Explend sound... I could obtain analog center/subwoofer from SPDIFO1(pins .19 and 20) from AUD_EXT conform this article above and send to my on board ALC650 (Realtek) ?

I have thinking to do a soft mod in Creative Drivers because the EAX and the Surround Mixer AC3 decode. I can´t spend more money to buy other board.

yes this is possible, provided you motherboard provides an SPDIF input
my old GA-7n400e and my current GA-7NNXP both have these inputs
currently mysetup is the opposite way - inputs from the onboard sound get sent to the audigy
