Here's a fun one, I've got a TV and a set of 5.1 speakers made for the computer. Creative Inspire 5300 or something. In order to make them work, I would need to have 2 RCA cables coming out of the TV feeding into a Y connector so I can bounce the R and L audio together. From there I would need to get an adapter to convert that RCA cable to an 1/8 inch mini cable. From THERE I would have to get another adapter that divides the cable into 3 separate 1/8 inch mini cables, one for the front speakers, one for the rear speakers, and one for the center speaker and sub. Obviously, my computer sound card had the 3 connections ready to go but in this situation I have to bounce them all to one.

Is this feasable? Or will the quality be crap or worse off will there by latency?

I just hooked my TV up to computer speakers using a bunch of adapters from Radioshack. Works great. But, make sure any adapters you buy are stereo, not mono.
