I have just bought one of these sets:

H&B Speaker System + Subwoofer SH-155

My question is how can I connect this to my PC?
I have seen reviews of people saying they have done so, but it has 6 phono plugs, not just one to go in the coaxial socket on my motherboard. I have a 7.1 motherboard.

Sorry, I replaced it with the manufacturers link.

I have onboard AC97 7.1 sound.

The thing is these speakers have six phono plugs to plug into your computer or DVD system. A digital coaxial socket only has one socket lol.
 
Yeah, out of the main unit there are 6 leads to connect to the audio source (nothing to do with connecting the speakers together).

Each lead has one phono plug and this is what they're for:

Front L
Front R
Back L
Back R
Woofer
Center Speaker

Somehow I need to condense those 6 down to 1, or find a sound card that has 6 phono outputs instead of 3.5mm jacks.
 
That's the only thing I can think of, but I'm not sure it will work.

I'll have to pick up a couple to give it a go.

I am confident it will work now.

I have just seen this image, and I have the 6 phonos there but not that particular lead. From this image it would seem that I can convert those 6 phonos down to the 3 3.5's I need :)

Thanks for everyone's help I'll have to give it a go!
