Q: My computer's hard drive is on the floor and many times I want to listen to music on the computer. However, the headphone cord isn't long enough. Is there a type of headphone that has a longer cord or a way to connect using an extension cord?
Names of headphone brands are appreciated. Thanks!

A: You can get "3.5mm Mini Plug extension cord" for a few buck in any local RadioShack, electronicsstore or on the net.
Here is one for $3.

I had the same problem...went to a RadioShak store and got an extension made just for this situation. It had a plug in hole at one end and a plugger-in thing at the other, so you can attach it to your existing headphone cord and not have to lie on the floor to listen to tunes!

i agree with the person above me,
also, you can get headphones with a long cord, which radio shack carries, also. :]

...also don't forget that wireless headphones exist too. They look like a thin pyramid which is a radio transmitter and are matched to headphones with a radio receiver, but no cord. You could try that too and be free to move around.

How do I make wireless TV headphones work when the only plug is for a regular headphone jack?

I have audio video outs on my television but no headphone jack, like the same as my computer headphones... I bought these for my TV I find it really strange the plugs are a regular headphone jack... my TV, DVD player, and Sattelite box do not have a headphone jack.. so confused... is there a converter of some sort or what the heck?


A: Yes, you can get a converter at Radio Shack or any local electronics store.

Look for something like this:

I have a non-branded japanese mp4 player. It works fine, except the headphones are utterly rubbish. I am having difficulty in finding a pair that has the same size jack on the end. Its a lot smaller than normal headphone jacks. Any help on where i can buy a pair of headphones or some information on how to find out what size the jack is would be appreciated.


A: I know you can buy the adapter from retailers...

How to use headphone and play instrumental while trying to record rap?

It won't let me play the instrumental and listen to it through headphones while I rap.
Is there a software other than audacity that allows you to do so?


A: idk but you can ask at cooly96.webs.com they have answer to everything and send the site to your friends
