Strange Request?

[BILLY-THE-FISH]

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 (http://www.7dayshop.com/catalog/normal_search_result.php?PHPSESSID=&keywords=media+hub) 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.
