Looking for help with a cable

[owolff]

hey guys,

I'm new here. Never used the forums, but a longtime watcher of ltt. Here's my problem - I can't get bluetooth stereo sound. I'm deaf. I have cochlear implants, so I can hear. The microphones are up on my temples, so I can't use regular headphones. Basically, I have two processors - one for each side. Each one has a female aux port which I can directly input sound into. Currently, I'm using the Hagibis x2 bluetooth input device with a random female aux -> dual male aux splitter from Amazon. This works fine, but there is no stereo sound. I want to fix this. What would your recommendations be to get left/right audio from a small bluetooth device? Any help is much appreciated. 

Note: the smaller and more robust, the better. Also, it has to be bluetooth because of my implants.

 

edit: the hagibis x2 is stereo compatible, but it doesn't work in my setup. I think the splitter is the problem.

What your after is a stereo splitter instead of just a generic Y splitter.

Currently Id say your hearing both left and right mixes in both ears.


This is the biggest pain in the arse to find a cable to do this because 99% of cables like this are just Y splits.

Sorry its a bit of a mess of big cables. You could get a custom cable made up.

How would I get a custom cable?

There's company's who make cables. If you ask them for a quote to make a
Female 3.5mm Jack Stereo to Two Mono Male 3.5mm jacks at a short length.
If you google custom audio cables im sure you will find a local company.

If your nifty with soldering you can do it your self.


Which every way get the cable its like a fiver in total and if it works you can get someone to make you some custom cables in the future.

That's exactly the cable Ahoy is talking about, just make sure they terminate in the right connections and you're good to go.
