Using Headphones with a Audigy 2 ZS???

Eminemdrdre00 · Dec 11, 2004, 03:23 AM

I have a Audigy 2 ZS with Creative 4.1 speakers. I have the green and black cords to the speakers plugged into the back of my Audigy 2 ZS. Where can I plug in headphones, and is it possible to get the sound to go to them instead of the speakers? Or do I have to reach around, unplug the speakers, and then plug in the headphones each time?

have to reach around etc…

unless you feel like using kX, or using a switching device (they exist for this very application)

You could plug your headphone to "digital out". Once you want to use headphone, click "speaker setting" and circle use digital out.

i run a 4.1 setup and use a y splitter off of the front speakers for my phones.this works great as long as your main speakers have a power switch

GSXR -> you'd want headphones that have a volume control however

if you use a y splitter then you still need a set of speakers with power button.i was saying how i do it,there are alot of other ways especially with the audigy 2 cards.you can also get the front box or also make your own out of another sound card, if you can solder.
