How would I set this up? (promedia 2.1 to both PC and 360)

Picked up a Klipsch Promedia 2.1 system and loving it so far for 360 games. Had to get a female-female 3.5MM adapter and 3.5MM male to male RCA y-cables to make it work. I'd like to also use it for my PC but not sure if using a 3.5MM splitter or something would mess with anything. Often I have my 360 on and switch to the PC's source (using same monitor for both - ) would that cause any problems if two sources are trying to use the speakers?
 
Doesnt it have two inputs? There's the aux input on one of the speakers

Yeah, but that thing is way too sensitive (I think the manual says +8dB so it can be used with small devices like MP3 players.) I tried it with the 360 when I first got them - barely touching the volume went from "too low to hear" to "oh my god the speakers are going to explode," plus it would be an extra wire hanging from the side. Aesthetics, you know.
 
connect the xbox to your pc's line in using male to male 3.5mm adapter using an rca to 3.5mm adapter(you can still use hdmi for video if you so wish)
goes like this xbox->rca to 3.5mm adapter->3.5mm male to male cable->pc line in->speakers
