Ok, so I have two sources, and one jack, which my phones plug into. I want each channel on the phone to play one source. To do this, I hacked up a cable with the left channel going into the source's left channel, and the right channel to the other source's right channel, and then tied both grounds to the jack's ground. Now, when I have only one source playing, stuff comes out of the other channel, too. I gather that this is because I have shorted the grounds of the source together.
Now, my question is, is this safe to do? Would it damage the circuitry in the sources? Is there some way to eliminate this?
