Connecting 2.1 speakers

Hi guys, i'm thinking of getting the Logitech z2300 speakers

http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/pr...CONTENTID=9372

I was wondering how i would connect them to the 360. Apparently they come with a video game adapter:

But i cant see any similar connections on the 360?

Thanks

Hi

Which cable are you using with your 360. The standard (composite) cable, the component cable, and the VGA cable all come with stereo audio out on phono connectors.

The only cable which doesn't is the SCART cable.

Hi

What is your display device? If you ditch your RGB SCART cable, you will be dropping to composite unless your device has component inputs.

I've got a workaround for you.

Get one of those crappy two in to one SCART splitters (splitter, *not* switch).

Plug one end into your TV, and then plug your XBOX cable into one of the sockets. Into the other socket, you can plug a Scart > 2 x Phono adapter or cable which you can then connect to your logitech speakers.
