Thread: Strange Request?

  1. #1
    Hi,
    What Im looking for is just a basic extension lead for a set of headphones??

    I'm in the UK and all i want to do is to have a lead that can reach from the back of my comp to the front so I can occasionally swap from my surround sound speakers to my headphones without having to reach round the back of my comp. on the floor! So i need a male/female adaptor thing but you know what I can't find one in any highstreet shop for love or money!
    My surround sound speakers have no headphone sockets like some!

    Any help would be appreciated!

    Cheers

    How about this at 7dayshop.com?

    At $6.49 bit more cash than just an adapter, but you can plug both your normal speakers and your headphones in and switch between them by just pressing a button. It has volume control and mic socket too. Had mine for a year and still working well, very useful.
