Hi Netarc,

I guess we both frequent the same places... :-)

I have had headphones in my CAV 6.6 for awhile
now and it works well. In the zone I needed it
I just took the speaker wires and hooked them
up to a stereo switched 1/4" jack. Normally when
the wall speakers are in use they just connect
in the normally closed position of the 1/4" jack's
switches, when I plug the headphones in, it opens
the connections to the wall speakers and they
turn off, and the headphones are connected. This
allows for volume control of all CAV sources when
on headphones. It is sweet.

If my description makes no sense let me know,
i will draw a diagram.

cheers

This sounds like just what I'm looking for, but
I'm afraid I don't follow - if you can illustrate/elaborate,
I'd very much appreciate it! (you can also reach
me offline at netarc -at- yahoo.com - thx!)

I don't know how to post a jpg, but I will email
it to you and maybe you can post it for the benifit
of the others.

I picked up the jack at a local electronics supplier,
I would not expect the Rat Shack to carry this
item. It is the same principle as when you plug
in headphones to a tv and the internal speaker
turns off. Or when you have a battery powered
device, you plug in a power adapter and it switches
power sources. It is just a mechanical switch.
You will need to diagram it as it gets kind of
confusing wiring it up :o)

Cheers

Al
