Computer Speakers Audio Jack Rewire 2 Wire Diagram

My mom uses computer speakers connected to the headphone jack on her Mac Mini. The jack failed (evidently this isn't uncommon). As an inexpensive workaround, I picked up this USB audio adapter, and it worked like a charm. Even plugged into a USB hub, it stays recognized and selected in the Sound System Preferences pane even after rebooting and waking from sleep.

The headphone out jack on my PC speakers finally wore out, so I needed a new way to select audio output to either speakers or headphones. This switcher seems well-built and makes it easy to quickly toggle between output sources. Being made in the USA is a nice bonus!

The RS 175 is extremely easy to use and sounds great. I hooked it up with my analog TV headphone out jack, and you can play the headphones by themselves, or at the same time as the optical digital TV out plays through the audio video amplifier into my corded speakers. That way if noisy people enter our living room I can just slip on the headphones and not have to ask them to be quiet or to leave, and I don't have to jack up the sound coming out of the speakers. Also, you just turn them on and they are automatically connected, you don't have to take any additional steps or try to debug any issues. The audio quality is very good and the headset is comfortable.

Before getting this unit, I ran my four amplified audio speakers from the headphone jack on my iMac. Using audio for editing in Final Cut Pro, but also watching movies at night, I had a nest of splitters separating the stereo lines to the various speakers and also to my headphones. A friend suggested the quality would be better with a digital audio converter, so I purchased this one. I am thrilled with it. I ran all the wires under my editing table and the master volume knob is right there at the front of my desk where I can adjust it when the volume gets too loud (Bruce Willis movies, etc.) And the headphone jack is right where I need it, cutting out the amplified speakers just by plugging it in. Its the most useful addition to my computer in a long time.

It does exactly what I need. I have a high end stereo receiver and speakers connected to my iMac computer analog audio output (headphone) jack. The receiver also is connected to several other analog audio sources. I have had persistent issues with hum in the audio from the computer. I tried all sorts of things, floating grounds, reversing plugs etc and nothing worked. putting the HE-18 in line with the computer completely eliminated the hum with no adverse side effects to the audio quality. I really appreciate the flexibility of all the various input and output connections. I now have a convenient extra port where I can plug in headphones for private listening when needed. (Unlike the idiots at Apple who put the headphone jack on the back of the iMac. What were they thinking?) The engineer who designed the HE18 deserves a lot of credit. He really did his homework.

I placed this amp in my basement and ran speaker wire outside to a pair of Polk audio atrium 8 speakers. Sound is amazing and so convenient to stream music every time I walk outside. I did a lot of searching and finally settled on this combo. Loving it. Highly recommended!

This is a better alternative to an adapter without the wire, since it puts less strain on the jack. Not expensive. Used it for adapter a microphone to an XT-30 camera. Easy, inexpensive, and effective. I would recommend using a wired adapter for this application, since preserving the camera and its jack are crucial.

These came with the Sony wireless lav set I bought quite a few years ago, and I decided to replace the mics with fresh ones when I noted that the wire was beginning to break where it goes into the jack. I briefly considered going with a less expensive alternative, but only briefly, as I realized the sound quality of these Sonys, along with the locking jack, make the cost well worth it. I need to do no audio sweetening in post - just paste the clip and go! You do need to be gentle when handling these to prevent the wires from being damaged (i'd love it Sony would somehow reinforce where the wire enters the jack), but i suspect that's the case with any lav mic.

Does anyone know what size the headphone jack on the back is? I’m trying to find a set of speakers for it and I can’t find the size anywhere.

I do Youtube content creation and I was looking to replace my 3 piece computer speakers that I previously used for pc gaming with something more mature and accurate with sound profiles for audio recording. These are excellent for the intended purpose given that they only cost $200 but reflect sound you'd expect in a professional studio. I will say that they provide adequate bass but if you really want the thump and vibration for bass heavy frequencies you'd probably also want to spend on the subwoofer that can be purchased separately, I haven't turned these up full volume yet because I don't feel like intentionally angering neighbors but the audio is enough to fill whatever room you put them in and possibly the next several rooms as well. Very pleased with my purchase
