Hello, does anyone make a high quality Y adaptor cable that will allow the listening of two headphones from one headphone output.

The cable is a 1/4-inch (6.3mm) plug to twin 1/4-inch (6.3mm) jacks.

Thanks

how about this one from headroom?

of course there are much cheaper options, i believe the one you have pictured is made by grado and probably doesnt cost much more than $20

Thanks tpc41!
That is exactly what I was looking for.
I wanted something nicer than the Grado version.
I also found a place called Moon Audio that can make custom cables.

no problem, i also noticed headroom gives a warning about using two sets of different headphones, there can be some sort of impedance mismatch that can cause problems, im not exactly sure what the effects are, but something to look into if using high quality gear.

Thanks, I also noticed that.
Hummmmmm?
I was going to use two different headphones.
Nothing is ever easy!

im sure an email to headroom would solve the mystery

i'd be interested in what HeadRoom say, if you do decide to email them, could you please report back?

Other than potential volume mismatch, you should be fine. If headphone A is a 32 ohm model and headphone B is a 250 then headphone A is going to be louder in sound. If you set the volume at a somewhat loud level while listening to headphone B, headphone A may be dangerously loud.
