If u use headphones how do U connect.
My sofa is 3m max from the equipment. Surely headphones like Grado don’t come with 3m+ of cables or do they?
Cheers

Re: Headphone users
Not an issue for me as I use a battery operated headphone amp (Chord Mojo). During the warmer months most of my headphone listening is even further away, in the garden. Can still pick up the wifi.

Re: Headphone users
Grado do an excellent 5m long extension cable. I use it with my Nighthawks as they have a ridiculously short lead.
Probably the best headphone extension cable you can get without having to pay silly money.

Re: Headphone users
Cheapo headphone extension cables work just fine for me.
£1.99 for 5m, sorted.

I had a Grado extension cable come with a pair of PS1000 I bought used. Hmm, I prefer the cheapo ones.
If you fancy splashing out a bit more, I'd recommend these ... they do allow through some extra transparency and openness imo.
IMO, IME, YMMV!

Re: Headphone users
... ah, well, it can be if you use one of these. Which are well recommended imo.

Female jack socket at each end!
Not currently available - sold out and understandably so - I suspect they'll be available again in the NY.

Re: Headphone users
It gets very positive comments on forums - I tried one, full of doubt.
I now own 5 of the little buggers, scattered around my various headphone enclaves!
