Hey guys,

Do headphone splitters reduce the quality if you were splitting the audio say 5-6 ways? This kind of idea

Looking to have a party and not worry about any noise complaints, anyone have any suggestions?

Wouldn't really worry as much about sound quality loss as much as getting all those cords tangled up, though you should not hear any difference anyway.

I don't know how much you could get some bluetooth headphones for these days, but that would seem a lot more practical to me.

Here's what I would do -


Set up a u-stream on a computer with input from your sound source.

Have everyone arrive with a smartphone and their headphones, get them to connect to the stream via your wifi.

That's actually a genius idea, I'm pretty impressed with myself.

Obviously only works if you've got good enough internet.

I was thinking that, but I am pretty sure theyre would be a delay and would kill the vibe if im mixing to something they are hearing ten seconds later.
Good idea though cheers.

Blast the fuck out of it until there's a knock on the door. Then just don't answer it!!!
