Monster Cable AICYP iSplitter Mini Y-Adapter for iPod and Mac

Specially designed to accommodate Apple iPods, iBooks, and Powerbooks, the durable adapter is gold-plated at both ends for maximal signal conductivity and minimal susceptibility to audio-degrading corrosion. And it's every bit as easy to use as it looks: just plug the male end of the iSplitter into the headphone jack on your iPod, iBook, Powerbook, or other entertainment device, then plug your headphones into the other end, and hit "play."

Product Description
With the MONSTER AICYP iSplitter you can hook up two pairs of headphones to your iPod, laptop or personal DVD player to share music and movies practically anywhere!

In typical monster style the splitter is made of the highest possible quality and offers excelent performance. It's also stylish, although it is made to fit with the iPod/iBook design scheme.

Bottom line, this type of splitter is ideal for gadget finatics and people who travel a lot and like to bring along thier music (unless you dont ever have the need to share). With this you can allow two pairs of headphones to be plugged into one discman, laptop, mp3 player, etc.

If you've ever wished you and your friend could both plug your headphone into your laptop so you could BOTH watch (and hear) a DVD on a bus trip this is the solution.

OK, this is a splitter. You can buy a cheap one anywhere but this one is well-made. The design matches the iPod well but it's functional as well. The black circle is a rubberized material with ridges that provide a good place to hold the splitter while you plug or unplug headphones. It works great.

I bought the splitter to use with a laptop playing DVD's while on vacation so that my wife and I could both listen with headphones (extremely important not to wake kids, especially while trying to enjoy a quiet moment on vacation). It works well on the plane too where you must use headphones to not disturb other passengers.

This is ideal for the new iPOD you want to share with a friend. As usual, the sound quality on the Monster product is superior.

When you get the idea of having a Y-Adapter and how much good it could do, you would think it would be difficult to choose a Y adapter from the enourmous electronics market. This adapter is really complimentary, and shows off as a better splitter there is.

Monster has done some effort and design for this, which shows in the cool look of the adapter and in the really overpriced price. The adapter feels good in your hand, and it doesn't have a too long wire connecting the input to the adapter, so tangle free-operation (though this can be a disadvantage for some people). The wire is well-insulated for maximum protection.

Though overpriced, if you are looking for a Y adapter, this is the one to buy. I use this adapter to share music by headphones and split the output of my audio card to headphones and speakers, so when I want to listen to my headphones, I leave the speakers off and vice versa, so I don't have to crouch behind the computer.

Recommended!

They sell these at almost every dollar store, sure the sound quality might not be quite as good, but you're going to have signal loss whatever you hook it up to. These things sell for $1.50 CAN at dollar stores and are worth every penny of THAT price
