    Speakers/Headphones for use with my PC and Xbox 360

    I currently have my pc and my 360 hooked up to my amp, but I'm not taking the amp and 5.1 to my tiny little dorm room at uni. I have the 360 and the pc hooked up to my monitor using dvi and vga inputs, so I need a solution that will let me connect both units to the same sound device. I don't want to spend much though.

    Any suggestions? A soundcard with an optical input would let me use any pc speakers for my xbox providing the pc is turned on... I think.. but no cheap sound card seem to have an optical in that I've seen.

    So, does anyone know of any cheap speakers that will connect to a pc, but also let me disconnect them and hook them up to my 360 using the red/white leads? I also need a headphone jack on the speakers.. :S

    I'm not sure what you were really asking there, but couldn't you use 3.5mm phono leeds?
