Every portable media player (or smartphone etc) I've ever tried has had the same problem: the lowest volume setting is still louder than I want.
Up until now, my solution has been to use an extension cable with a volume wheel. But this has serious flaws:
* annoyingly long cable
* volume wheel gets changed by accident sometimes
* depending on the position of the volume wheel, one side of the headphones becomes noticably louder or quieter than the other, and it's annoying
What I want is just a simple small headphone plug with a couple of resistors. I had a look around and couldn't find anything like it. I tried making something like it myself but my soldering skills suck and it broke in a couple of days.

to be clear, this is exactly what I want

Just solder it yourself, use hot glue to fix it in place and use heat shrinking tube to hide it and you're done.

Yeah I'll probably do that. Gonna buy some plugs and sockets and resistors, and hot glue and heat shrink stuff

Good luck getting a job because every sound hurts your brittle little bitch boy ears

You need headphones with higher impedance.

This.
Or just get a cable with a potentiometer aka volume control.

>>61372274
You mean lower sensitivity you dumbass

>>61372772
Why not both.

How much of a earlet do you have to be to have a volume of 1 hurt your ears?

Fuck off, quick-to-judge faggots.
Maybe OP is trying to listen in very sound-tight environments - ever tried using headphones under such circumstances?
I myself have to reduce the volume scope in my media player whenever I do that. Thankfully it's capable of doing it (iPod nano 3rd gen).
Perhaps this is also of interest to you OP, since it's a media player which has the option of adjusting volume scope.
Regardless, other anons are right - your best bet is soldering it yourself and securing resistors with heat shrinking tube.
