    Speakers + headset

    Hey

    I have both 5.1 speakers and a 5.1 headset. I was wondering if there is an adapter of sorts that will allow me to have both plugged into my mobo, at the same time and just hit a switch to swap them?

    Im certain adapters exist to plug in both, however without a second soundcard they will likely always both be active. A second soundcard or virtual soundcard would allow you to swap between them, not with a switch but rather in the sound control panel.

    Most independent soundcards can do that (atleast Asus ones anyway) but I'm not 100% sure about integrated cards, depends on their software.
