I have an old stereo that I use as my PC speakers. I have recently got a second monitor and there is not no more room on my desk for it (only the speakers) I was hope to make/buy some sort of in-line volume control (with aux connectors on each end) to adjust the volume as the stereo is now under my desk. its not so easy to change the volume any more :(

for the line level control you could cut in a gang pot a (DIY & info link). you could look at your local car audio shop for an amplifier gain/volume control.

if you want to adjust the speaker level output, it gets complicated. but many home automation (smarthome link) have various solutions. you would have to match your stereo amp output to a specific control.
