    It’s good for streaming or podcast no issues with this but if you want to suppress and eliminate humming buzzing get the chat link pro

    This product was as advertised. The split is for two separate stereo outlets. Most splitters are mono versus stereo ports.

    Well built and worked well for a 4-hour flight and then again on the return trip home. It is not compact but folds easily This was used on a USBC to audio adapter and didn't show signs of sound degradation.

    I recently purchased this 2-Way Audio Splitter from the Best Buy Essentials line of products and it didn’t disappoint. Used to split two sources of audio (shotgun and lavaliere) into a camera 3.5 mm audio input (or the Ninja V monitor/recorder).

    Gives 2 female stereo 1/8" DIN ouputs from 1

    A simple product that worked perfectly. I have a ROKU streaming device and need to ultimately convert the audio in the HDMI output to RCA LEFT and RCA RIGHT as inputs to my 2-channel stereo and Sennheiser headphones (for late night listening). I fed the HDMI output from the ROKU to a Kanex Pro Audio Extractor. This extractor provides analog LEFT and RIGHT audio channel outputs via a 1/8" DIN female outlet. I used this product to give me TWO 1/8" DIN female outlets, one driving a set of DIN-to-RCA cables for my preamp ... and one driving a standard DIN stereo cable to the headphones. Clear as mud? :-)

    Great alternative to a headphone amp for recording

    Unbelievably useful alternative to a headphone amp. Admittedly I only ever had a 4 channel behringer headphone amp prior. The behringer had connectivity issues with the adapters going from 1/4 to 1/8 trs. This beauty here, however, works flawlessly to allow me to monitor myself while the engineer oversees the mixing (or the other way around if I’m engineering). We use audio technica and beyerdynamic headphones with this little adapter with no issues. I’ve also used skull candy’s on these with similar success

    The 6" 2-Way Audio Splitter is fantastic! Its compact size and sleek black design make it portable and stylish. It allows me to connect two pairs of headphones or speakers to one audio source without any loss in sound quality. It's reliable, durable, and the perfect solution for sharing audio. Highly recommended!
