It's like a Zune just without the picture sharing, crazy display, screen, another Zune, music, buttons, included headphones, and plug-ins for $1.99!

This is a good idea but you can get 2 splitters for $4.16 on other sites shipped in 2-3 days. check it out

http://www.monoprice.com/ and search for "667"

Hate to do it to ya woot, you know I love what you people do!

nice busting of the preverbal balls, you know he just posted it thinking no one will go to radioshack.com and check, good job!

Presuming there's a shipping cost invlved, you can pick this up at your local radioshack for about the same, i'd guess

Plain splitter $1.17 shipped - http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.2716

And these that Woot has for 2/$1.99 are $5.37 on the same site... so that's $10.74 for two.

Wow, you must work hard to afford those projectors working at dollar tree. Anyway, I've seen these at "dollar stores" for 1$, and I've thrown away headphones because of some of them. I had one pair where a friend decide that since he couldn't get the stereo plug all the way in, he was gonna hammer it on the desk until it went in... cracked the end off the stereo plug. I would woot this if I didn't already have 3 nice quality ones.

i own 33% of the store

Well...ummm...Are you kidding? It means there are none available. Was that a trick question?

I Live Alone.

Yes there are some. In most of Sony mp3 player there is a splitter with only one connection which is called extension cord :D.
You would know this if you owned NW-S705F from woot before.

Where was this a month ago.... I just got back from a trip... was searching for a way to let my wife listen to the movie on my pc on the plane..... Had to share the same headphones...Woot me for the next trip.....

wOOts rejecting my order ....so maybe just as well.....

would've bought, but i already have a splitter from radioshack.

Can these be used to split input from two microphones?

A problem with these is that if the two pairs of headphones plugged in are wildly different, one person may get a lot of volume while the other will get very little. I have a splitter, and when I plug my nice Grado headphones in along with my girlfriend's standard Apple buds, she can't hear a thing when it's perfectly loud for me. It has to do with the resistance of the drivers.

That it sold out... wow that was fast... i geuss all the btchn wooters that complained about 5bux for shipping bought out the one on ebay...

I got 3 (6) was just thinking that I need those the other week, thanks wooooooooooot

In for 3(I mean 6?)

Thanks woot, one of the non-junk in a while.

Okay...I don't know why people are complaining about the shipping on woot for this one. It's their thing to always charge for shipping (at that price)...Sure these are small and all, but think about the TV they were selling. Same price on the shipping charge. Sure they most likely lost money on shipping with the TV. Think of this one as....gaining back some of that loss.

No, actually we're screwed on this deal. The "TAXSUCKS" $5 discount code only applies to orders over $40.

Hm, can always do with a spare one or two of these...In for 3 pairs! The design leaves a little to be desired though...it may be a little too long for some smaller mp3 players (looks designed for a the larger psp)

But there's still not much (if any) good reason to choose the logitech over the other cheaper ones.
The main difference is just the name, not the functionality.

JonPowell wrote:Good deal, can use these in your car on long road trips or computer w/multiple PC speakers. They're going for $17.95 on eBay Each! + $14.95 shipping!

Really? I just looked at them on eBay (not identical physically, but performs the exact same function) and they were $1 each + $1 shipping. Just search for "3.5mm Audio Splitter."

Also, everyone should note that when using one of these devices with two different types of headphones, it is possible that one set will be much louder than the other set. Since you won't be able to adjust each headphone individually, this could present a problem. However, if your headphones have their own volume controls (some do) then you might be able to compensate for the volume difference.

Well, anything in series you simply accumulate, so you would add up the impedance for each component of the circuit.

So, using the formula for impedance (Z = R + jX), you would need to know specifics about the schematics of the iPod, which I'm guessing will be hard to come by.

P.S. I'm a EE undergrad ;)

Sorry, but these types of splitters almost always wire the headphones in parallel, so you might want to re-think that. I'm sure that you understand the difference.

I am down for the 2 for Tuesday!!
Don't need them right now, but I can think of times in the past when I could have used them.


I LIKE!!

these are sooo 1980.

The Price is good!
Shipping is Great

The product is (ool



But why do I need these? My finger wants to click the button...
But WHY?

I guess these could come in handy if you know people who carry headsets around with them. They should have sold these with the headsets together. It makes more sense.

"Converts a single 1/8” stereo jack into two 1/8” stereo jacks"

this is truly magic...

wish they had something like this for dollar bills - put one in, two come out

shut your pie, hole, I bet you don't complain about paying $5 to ship a 60 poud tv!

deal with it or shoop at amazon


I'm in for 3 so the kids can use thier own headphones on the plane and not shar 1 set

More expensive but worth it (in my book) is the "Boostaroo" http://www.boostaroo.com/ I've had one for years and break it out when the need arises.

These are really good if you use Skype or other VOIP services. I like to use the external speakers on my computer to listen to music, etc. When using Skype, I need to use a headset to prevent audio feedback through the microphone. Switching audio outputs is a pain, so I have a splitter that lets output go to the headset and the speakers. During a Skype call, I power off the speakers (or dial down their volume), and just use the headset to listen.

its bad when shipping costs more than the product

i got mine. don't really know why, just couldn't pass up the deal!

Yes, $29.99 & $39.99 + S&H that starts at $6 is a bit more. I think that the target market is a "bit" lower here - but that was interesting to see.

Comments from an electronics engineer:
(Look at http://www.guymacon.com/ for my qualifications)

Ipods have a fairly high output imedence, which somewhat degrades the sound when using ipod earbuds and this sort of splitter. Split it three or four ways and it gets a lot worse. If you are serious about audio quality, get a booster amplifier.

Some consumer products have a very low output impedence, and this sort of splitter works quite well with them -- even with a four or eight way split. Alas, they usually don't list this in the specifications so you have to guess or experiment.

Headphones often do specify impedence. Higher is better if you are buying headphones to use with this splitter.

This sort of splitter works best with two of the same brand of headphones. mix brands and one may be a lot louder, and the frequency response could be changed.

These are great for splitting a line out signal like between your PC and powered speakers.

They make poor combiners (line or speaker).

These don't change stereo to mono or mono to stereo.

You are very unlikely to damage yur ipod. Somone plugging a mono earphone into a stereo jack shorts out one of the channels, so all products are built to survive that situation.

Battery life will be shorter.
