If I plug this into an iPod Touch, laptop, etc. will it cut off the main speakers like a regular pair of headphones would?

No, it is non conductive so the input jack does not recognise it as s pair of headphones. Essentially, your phone wouldn't even know IS there unless there is something up with your device or your device operates using like a physical sensor and not the "electric" type.

Yes, for a laptop at least it does cut off the sound. Not too sure for an iPod Touch though.

For a laptop it does cut off the sound and for an ipod touch I'm not sure but will assume that it can worse case it does play through the speakers.

No it does not cut of the speakers like headphones. It just keeps dust from getting onto the connections inside of the "jack".

I use mine for an android phone and it doesn't switch the sound to headphones
1000596
no, because it's not a piece of electronics that is connecting to anything inside the phone/ipod, etc. so main sounds from normal speakers will still work accordingly. it's just a like a rubber plug for the headphone jack.

The only piece of equipt that it did cut off the main speakers is my ipad.. it thinks headphones are pluged into it.. laptops, iphone 5 and iphone 4 and ipod 5 did not affect the main speakers...

For my Macbook air, it does not cut off the sound. It pretty much is purely decorative for my devices.

No, it puts my iPod touch 2g into "line-out" mode and you won't be able to control the volume. You can plug them in, but the sound will be very loud with no way to reduce the volume.

This only has one headphone out. You could use a splitter. It's basically a USB sound card. I don't think it'll make much different on those headphones, unless you are getting a lot of noise from your system on your regular headphone jack.

Nope if headphones are plugged in analog RCA output is muted. This would be true of any decent audio amp or dacs. I love this dac more than any of the 400-500 dollar ones I tried.

Yes. But sometimes it cuts in and out of the headphones if touched just right.

The answer is - It depends. The setting/feature you're talking about is in your TV, not the headphones. On some TVs, when you plug in an "external speaker" into the jack, the TV cuts off the internal speakers. If yours works that way now, it will with this device - or any similar one. I recognize that this isn't actually an 'external speaker,' but all the TV 'knows'is that something is plugged into the external speaker/headphone jack, so it shuts off the speakers.

Yes. All other speakers go mute when the headphone jack is used. Practice away!

It mostly works. Every other time when I switch from video to music it gets 'silent'. i.e. iPhone will show that it is still using MW600 as sound output, but no sound is coming out of headphones.Also, sound volume is not that hight.

As long as it cuts off speakers when you plug in headphones, should work just fine in any set of front ports on a pc. There's only once when I've had a system not auto-cut the speakers and that was a software issue on a much older system. I've used these quite a bit and they're great for being able to use headsets you'd normally use with a cell or other single-plug sets.

Check to see if your getting noise without the headphones. If you get static using speakers, then this won't do anything for you.

I would say they cancel it out well, in a normal setting they you will not hear anything other then your music, (my parents get mad because I cant hear them over the headphones) but for gym use, I boost it up maybe like 1 notch, however it also depends on the device your using, also I'm not one to listen to my music at extremely high volumes as well. Also the Sound quality is incredible.

There is no headphone jack on the speakers themselves, so in order to use headphones you'll have to either unplug the speakers and use that jack, or use a secondary jack located somewhere on your computer (Very common). Even if the speakers are plugged in, when you plug in your headphones, the speakers will stop making sound and the output will instead switch to your headphones.

I plugged it into an iPod and it works well, but it's not a dual speaker - so if you have a song that bounces between two speakers (left to right) you will lose part of the song. Like, there is a Beatles song where I lose almost all the background sound, but the singing is clear.

Yes. When you plug in the headphones, that turns off the external speakers.

Hi.On mine, when I plug in headphones, the sound switches from the speakers to the headphones. With headphones plugged in, you can listen to music without disturbing anyone else.

I tried it with a pair of (stereo) headphones. Connected the headphones to my laptop via this right angle connector. Seems to work fine. My guess is that this connector should work for you, too.

It may. However, expect interruptions in signal between your headphones and connecting device.
