Maciek,
I'm also looking for that same Y adapter they call it. The instructions in the box showed a picture of one of these cables. I went to a Audio Electronics store yesterday and they haven't seen them before. So it sounds like they will be hard to find. Post if you find them as will I.
looking for "3 female 3.5 to 1 male 3.5" not 2 to 1.

They don't make 3-1 headphone jack adaptors. You'll have to wire your own or buy two 2-1 adaptors.

As a sidenote: If you want 5.1 sound, don't buy computer speakers to do it.
