This is probably a very far fetch, but are there any speakers I can buy that directly connect to the Xbox 360 via the audio cables? I want to hook it up to my Dell LCD, but it doesn't have speakers. I already have a 2.1 setup for my PowerBook that I'd like to keep there... so any cheap 2-channel set is fine.

Thanks! :)

Edit: It looks like this setup will be good enough:

Cheap and easy! :) However, can this connect to my Xbox 360 in any way?

Edit again: Sorry for the second edit, but will this work? http://www.amazon.com/3-5MM-Stereo-Male-Female-Adapter/dp/B000J1H4VI

It seems a little too easy.

If you get the VGA cable for the 360, it comes with that second adapter you link to. I'm assuming you're going to use the VGA cable to connect to the dell screen. Just get that small speaker you want and use that adapter and you should be all set.

yup. if not those adapters are very common and cheap. but the official 360 one does come with one! i am using that right now with a audio switch between my computer and my 360, its great. same monitor same sound!
