FAQs
Can this cable combine two audio signals into one?
No, this cable is designed exclusively to split one stereo audio signal into two separate stereo outputs. It cannot combine audio signals.
What type of audio connections does this cable use?
The cable uses standard 6.3mm (1/4 inch) stereo jack plugs and sockets.
What is the length of the cable?
The cable is approximately 0.2 meters (22cm) long, including the plugs.
Is this cable suitable for microphones?
This splitter is designed for line-level stereo audio signals, not typically for microphones which often use different connectors and signal types (e.g., XLR).
Will this work with my smartphone headphone jack?
No, smartphones typically use 3.5mm (mini-jack) connections. You would need a 3.5mm to 6.3mm adapter to use this cable with a smartphone output, and then potentially another adapter to connect your 3.5mm headphones.
Does the gold plating improve sound quality?
The gold plating helps ensure a more reliable and corrosion-resistant connection, which can contribute to maintaining signal integrity and thus, potentially perceived sound quality over time.
What is the weight of the cable?
The cable weighs approximately 50g.
Troubleshooting
No sound or only one channel working.
Ensure the cable is fully plugged into both the source and the destination devices. Verify that the source device is outputting a stereo signal. Check that the connected headphones or audio cables are functional and properly inserted into the splitter sockets.
Humming or buzzing sound.
Check all connections for looseness. Ensure the source device and the splitter are not too close to sources of electromagnetic interference. Try using the splitter with different audio equipment to isolate the source of the noise.
One of the 6.3mm sockets is not working.
Inspect the non-working socket for any visible damage or debris. Try plugging a known working audio cable or headphone into that specific socket to confirm if the issue lies with the socket or the connected device.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Simply plug the 6.3mm stereo jack plug into your audio source device's stereo output. Then, connect your two sets of stereo headphones or audio cables to the two 6.3mm stereo sockets.
Compatibility: This splitter is compatible with any device featuring a standard 6.3mm (1/4") stereo jack output. It is designed for splitting a *stereo* signal, not for combining mono signals or for use with devices requiring 3.5mm (mini-jack) connections without an appropriate adapter.
Care: Keep the cable and its connectors clean and dry. Avoid sharp bends or kinks. Store in a cool, dry place when not in use. Periodically wipe the connectors with a dry, lint-free cloth to maintain optimal conductivity.
