Extending headphones reach

[Southernbudz]

Peace. What up people, my post here is brief, so lets hope you guys can give me some answers, thanks.

i have Sennheiser Headphones.

i was wondering if there is any product i can buy
that can help me extend my headphones reach

like a cable i can connect my headphones to (so it's able to be used from a distance) and the other end to my mbox

in other words

im planning on having my studio desk outside my closet
and i need a cable to connect from my mbox to my headphones to reach inside my closet.

thank you!

You need a simple headphone extension cable. You should be able to find one at RadioShack or an online retailer.

this post was so pointless.. found them on guitarcenter, but thanks sunburst!

wait, do they have extension cables for xlr mic cables?

XLR mic cable extenders can be found at Guitar Center too.
They're called XLR mic cables.

I should have added this:

When in Guitar Center, you'll find the XLR mic cable extenders mixed in with the regular mic cables. You may have to consult one of the audio professionals in the pro audio dept., and let him/her know you want an extender. It gets confusing, because they're the same price as regular mic cables, and aren't clearly marked as extenders.

he's pullin' your leg. You can patch a dozen mic cables together to make it 200' if you like(any cable that is not xlr-xlr is not a mic cable). But while you're in GC, ask the "genius" for an RCA to Edison adapter. If he goes looking, run for the door!!!

Now before someone takes me to task over this statement: "any cable that is not xlr-xlr is not a mic cable", I don't count cables for non-pro mics as we are supposed to be PRO's.....using tools

Anyone have a ground lift for a three prong wireless infrared extension cord?

I feel a bit ripped off actually. A Audio Professional at GC sold me 16 XLR Cable Extenders for my stage snake and I could have had full fledged mic cables instead.

You should buy 16 adapters to go from extendo to full mic cable Those are on the same rack as the MIDI to Twist-Loc cables. I knew a guy once that needed an XLR "Y" cable that was 1 female to 2 male, but all he had was a 1 male to 2 females....so he bought 3 XLR turnarounds.....(true story)....unlike the man I saw with wooden legs and real feet.................
