Ok i will have a go :P
Currently i am using the sound station 3 speakers + sub woofer from logitech, It is using the standard 3.5mm jack to connect to my PC
I would like yo use these speakers for my 360 but i cant because there is only one line in, any ideas?

You have a few options then.
1- Your logitech speakers probably have a line-in 3.5mm jack for an mp3 player as well as the cord you use to plug into the PC (I couldn't find S.S. 3 speakers so I can't be sure). If you do have the mp3 line-in you can plug the 360 in there. You might need an RCA-3.5mm male adapter to do this, but it comes with the VGA cable set which I assume you're using.
2-Your computer probably has a line-in plug marked with a microphone. You can plug the 360 in there the same way, the only bummer is the PC has to be on to hear the 360.
3-If you have a nice sound card, it will have an optical input which is the best way to go. Just plug an optical cable between the AV plug on the 360 and your sound card. If it's an internal card the PC has to be on, but if it's USB you're go to go even with the PC off.
If none of those work you can go the somewhat-decent-but-way-ghetto route, you'll need:
-360 RCA audio connected to RCA-3.5mm adapter (included w/ vga cable)>> female to female 3.5mm cable
-Connect a male-to female 3.5mm cable to your pc
Now you'll have two female plugs, one from the 360 and one from the PC. Just plug your speaker jack into whichever one you need. Get long enough cors so you can set them on your desk and you don't have to reach behind it. You can find cheap audio cables that work well at cablesforless.com
