Multiple Output Devices?

Hi, here is my problem, I'm hoping someone will have a solution:

I have 3, that's right, 3 audio output devices, all compatible with my speakers:

XBox
DVD Player
Computer (PC)

Now, the PC has regular output jacks - 1/8. I think that's the standard. Anyhoo -

Is there any way, other than a switch, that I can 'combine' these 3 outputs into one signal for the speakers to play all at once?

Here are the specs of my equipment:

TV - Has only RF input.
Speakers - Accept only RCA input.
XBox - Has 3 RCA outputs (R/L Audio, Video)..I forgot what that's called.
DVD Player - Has 3 RCA Outputs (R/L Audio, Video)

Now, I want every possible device to output sound to my one set of speakers, and video of course to my TV.

Is this possible?

Also, I've been thinking about using a switch -

I've decided on this one, because if I need a switch, I'll probably need an RF Modulator for the time being as well.

I'm not sure if any of those devices would be able to power your speakers. They are all just switchers. Yes, you would need a RF modulator.

But Doc, if it was me, I'd spring for a new TV. Even the least expensive setshave video and audio inputs on them nowadays...

Well, I've tested my speakers with all of the devices individually, and they work well. So they *are* compatible, but now the connections setup is giving me trouble.

And yeah, I've thought about a new TV quite a bit. It's just too big of a punch in the old wallet right now, you know?
