Im trying to use speakers and headphones at the same time, with this and i cant seem to get it work, u told me on a different post that I needed a dj splitter cable, what do I do after that?? and is this cable from amazon good enough bc i have one of these from amazon Belkin F8V234-WHT Speaker and Headphone Splitter by Belkin
Richard, as I told you, you need a DJ or mono splitter cable - a normal splitter won't do. We've written at length about this here, where you'll also find a video: http://www.digitaldjtips.com/2011/07/djs-guide-to-splitter-cables/ That will give you all you need to know. Good luck!
I found one cheap at my local radio shack that is intended for use with audiobooks. Works like a charm. Once you have a bit of cash though you might want to pick up a USB audio adapter like the Numark DJio.
RadioShack is a goldmine for connectors and cables if you have the patience to dig for it. There are two ways to do it with RadioShack parts (or "The Source" in Canada which used to be RadioShack Canada ... not sure what the equivalent store would be in the UK) : 1st way: -1 of these to split into mono left/right: http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2102691 -2 of these to change each mono back to a "stereo" connection (really mono on both left/right): http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2062469 That should cost about $11 plus tax 2nd way: -this is really an aircraft headphone adapter: http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2103860&numProdsPerPage=60# It can be used in the same way but you'll need to change the mono plugs to stereo jack and that will be a pain in the butt because you need double the connectors, the 2 mono/stereo connectors above and 2 of these: http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2103722 Also just from personal experience these types of connectors are really NOT pro-grade so you may find yourself susceptible to hum especially when connected to a more powerful system or even higher powered home stereo. Good luck!
We used to have Radioshacks ( or was it Tandys ? ) in the UK back in the early 90s. The equivalent now would be Maplins. Always a good bet for that spare cable or adaptor and I've always found them really helpful. www.maplin.co.uk
Found this online too for 12 euro / 15 USD from a German company: http://www.yumatron.com/dj-app-zube...hone-and-master-output-splitter-cable/a-1701/
