I have a set of Logitech Z-5500 Speakers and want to stick them on the 360 to see what there like ive tried doing it through my hdtv but its not working?

Is there something extra I need?

The scart that comes with the 360 has an optical out. Your speakers have an optical input. All you need is an optical cable to connect both.

Exactly what bucks73 said.
Whatever cable you are using (VGA/Component etc) should have an optical out port on the piece that plugs into the 360.
Optical cable from there to Z-5500 and away you go.
I have them and they are great, makes a big difference.

I have the z-680s (model before yours) - hurry up and get that optical cable. You will be blown away with the sound, it's unreal. Like adding another 20" to your TV!:D
