Review on πŸ”Œ VCE 3.5mm Female to 2 RCA Male Stereo Audio Y Cable 2-Pack - Gold Plated Adapter for TV, Smartphones, MP3, Tablets, Speakers, Home Theater (8 inch) by Milton Wolf

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works exactly as I hoped it would

After reading the FAQ for this item I was concerned that it might not be suitable for what I need. I like watching movies on the living room TV with my good wired headphones. The TV does not have a 3.5mm jack (like most TVs) but does have RCA audio output jacks. I figured if anything would work it would be this little adapter. When I first plugged it in I thought it didn't work. Sound still came out of the TV speakers, but nothing came through the headphones. BUT after playing around with my TV's sound settings, it finally worked exactly the way I wanted it to. Sound comes out in clear stereo through the headphones, while the TV speakers are completely silent. And I can control the volume with the volume controls on the TV remote. I suspect there are many TVs this doesn't work with, but I'm a little lucky that my TV's audio settings are as comprehensive as they are. So if you're buying it for this purpose, maybe do some troubleshooting on your own before making a purchasing decision. Very glad I got around to trying this. Now I can watch movies in the living room without disturbing my roommate, who is working on the computer three meters away from me.
