Hi, I've been looking for a 1/4 to 1/8 adapter recently and I'm not sure on what to buy. Do any of you have any recommendations?

I would go with something in this style. Will put a lot less stress in the jack.

I'm not recommending this one just the style you can prob find cheaper.

nah, something like this won't work as I am connecting this to my C4 then to my headphones
 
the connection point dangling around would be a nightmare
 
also, did I say it wrong? 1/4 is big to 1/8 small right? as in big in the front

Man, 1/8 is the smaller one right? 3.5 mm? I get confused with this stuff...

so you want 1/8 to 1/4.

Assuming your trying to get the headphone's 3.5mm (1/8") plug to work with a 6.3mm (1/4") jack (source).
If the headphone plug is threaded, this Shure 1/8 to 1/4 threaded (locking) adapter ($4.99) might be a good choice.

I must have bought over 12 of them myself.
