    Limit headphone output

    Does anyone know a product that you can hook to your headphone that will limit the output to a max of 60db

    MP3Gain, you can reduce the volume of your MP3 (Personally I would suggest target volume to 80~85dB.

    I don't think there are other ways to do it

    To limit specifically to 60dBA (or similar setting) you would need something active, rather than just a passive attenuator network. It is relatively complex to do what you want, but otherwise, a simple 3 resistor network would probably do the trick, I'll see if I can find a page with info.

    That should do it for the DIY aspect, unfortunately, the only pre built jobs are £60 odd from Canford Audio !
