Adapting 3.5mm headphones plug to 1/4" Jack
Just bought a pair of HifiMan Ananda Nanos which are 3.5mm and want to plug into 1/4" phone jack on a Sansui AU-101. Want to play vinyl and the phono stage is really good.
I know this is not ideal, but short of installing a 3.5mm jack on the front panel is there a high quality adapter?
You are starting with this cable, correct? Your model splits L & R inputs
you can use an adapter, or an extension cable /adapter like this, they come various lengths
I had some very nice headphones, the cable was just long enough, unless I moved my head back, or turned to look behind me, annoying as hell. |
That’s great and thanks for your response. I had a very busy weekend. I wish you good luck on Finding those Sansui integrated amplifiers. Any of them that I’ve listed will do, and you will be in for a world of listening joy that even headphone amplifiers at 2 grand can’t compete with. A resistor pad is used to step down the voltage, but it was designed at time where if you needed more juice; you could crank it up. And the best part? The speaker terminals and headphone out are derived from the same high quality signal path. It's not necessarily warm, but slightly smoothed over, yet detailed, wide and inviting overall. That's how I'd describe them. |
@1trackmind Why don't you buy a different cable? I recommend the Grave Digger' |
