5.1 with smarthome setup - advice?

    Hi folks,
    Any advice gratefully accepted on the following setup:
    I have a PC with a 5.1 sound card.
    I also live in a place with a built in smarthome system - a box on the wall to plug the audio into, plus RCA out sockets around the room.

    What I'd like to do is get a speaker system that will give me surround sound from the PC, to speakers connected to the RCA sockets.
    I'm considering a logitech z506 (or something similar, I can't find anything that isn't a lot more expensive) - however I'm a little worried about this setup, as it doesn't seem to use RCA cables for the speakers.

    Would I need some kind of adaptors - or if anyone has a similar setup, is there a better system to use for the same effect? I'm trying to avoid systems that have a DVD player, as there's already one in the PC, and I'll be using it for music and gaming too.

    Many thanks in advance for any help.
