Do these monitors have individual headphone jacks? E.g. can you plug in a normal headphone set to listen in on the audio besides using the IR ones?

Yes,they have headphone jacks and an audio in. Personally, I would buy the IR headphones. I bought these: Mobile Headphones, XO Vision Blue Universal Wireless Bluetooth Foldable Headphones [ IR630B ] and they worked great.

Yes on the left side at the bottom. Zoom in on the pic you should be able to see it at the bottom.

I use a Focusrite 2i2 audio interface, with balanced XLR to XLR cables - very quiet. What are you connecting to the monitors? Make sure you are using quality cable(s) as well.

Yes, the speakers are built into the monitor. But keep in mind, these are the tiny, tinny-sounding speakers typically found in computer monitors with built-in speakers. The audio quality is decent enough for speech, but not at all adequate for music. I don't use the monitor's speakers at all. Instead, I send the audio to my computer's speakers, or to the audio receiver to which my hi-fi speakers are attached.

Of course, i have mine plugged directly to my computer so it's a 3.5 mm standard headphone jack, but the monitors need 1/4, RCA, or XLR. I chose the 1/4 to 3.5mm, i bought these ones and are great: Hosa CMP159 Stereo Breakout, 3.5 mm TRS to Dual 1/4 in TS, 10-Feet-Esteban

At the rear of the monitor, under the panel that protects the external connection points, is a connector labeled with the headphone symbol. I can only assume that you can connect external speakers to it, same as you would headphones.

Nope. Same mistake I made, these are not headphone/standard audio headphones, they are optical meaning they use light to convey information. So your headphones wouldn't know what to do with the signal

Thank you for your inquiry. You can connect these monitors to using either the XLR or RCA input jacks on the rear panel. Please feel free to let us know if you have any other questions. Thank you.

They do not plug directly into a computer. I have an audio interface (in my case, an Avid Rack 11), which interfaces with the monitors. I'm sure there are plenty of ways to accomplish an interface, but the monitors do not plug directly into a computer.

You should probably just invest in a decent set of powered wedge monitors for live monitoring if you're unsatisfied with your current set. I wouldn't rely on a poorly made passive headphone out splitter for anything to do with live monitoring. In-ears are the best option but will cost you a lot per pair.

No speakers on the monitor, so I am using separate ones. But I do love my monitor!

As a general rule monitors, including this monitor, do not have built in speakers. You will need to purchase speakers in addition to the monitor if you need audio.

I bought mine primarily to use with my drum set - but since then I've been using to listen to Spotify on my PC too and they sound freaking fantastic! Way better than any of the PC Gaming headphones (Logitech) that I have... These are industry standard audio monitors, I don't think you'll find a better performing, more affordable set.

Mine work fine on both monitors... Make sure the audio cable is plugged into the green sockets... Adjust the volume on the monitor using the volume control on the bottom right side.

Yes, they are TRS so you can use XLR inputs on your monitors without issue, However you can also use Mono Jack TS into phono inputs on your monitors if they are single ended but hum might be an issue.

I've used these on two different basic HP laptops/notebooks, and never had any issues using these monitors as long as your basic audio drivers are up to date. They don't require any intrinsic interface themselves, self-powered, so they should operate no matter what interface you're using on your PC or whatever, you should be able to just select them or assign as default speakers, etc. With recording software I know it sometimes gets a bit tricky and you gotta make sure that application is assigning the speakers the way you need to use them, otherwise, I wouldn't think you would have any issues with these. Also has RCA and mini jack inputs on rear so you can always plug other devices/outboard amps into these and use them that way, if you like. The only issue I've had was the headphone jack got a bit loose over time, but I just use the notebook one and it's fine. If you can afford really high-end monitors (Yamaha etc.) by all means get 'em, but if not, I think these are really quite good for the money. Plus they don't take up much room and they sound pretty darned good and the bass-boost feature is really cool as well.

Hey Larry,Thanks so much for your response; you were 100% right. I just got these yesterday and the jack is a standard headphone jack. Much appreciated.Cheers,Matt
