Yes, pop by a radioshack or any electronics joint and get a male RCA to female 3.5mm jack converter. You'll need, what, 3 of them for that setup?

It'll work fine, but of course you won't get surround, and using the subwoofer might be a bit troublesome. The best way I think would be to use matrix mode on the speakers. Unplug the center if you get sound out of it, as you'll only be up-scaling stereo sound without a center channel.
The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP
