Galaxy Audio JIB/S 4-Way 1/4" TRS Audio Splitter

The Galaxy Audio JIB/S is a compact metal 1/4" audio splitter that routes one input into four separate 1/4" outputs for headphones or powered monitors.

Compact, rugged and straightforward, the JIB/S 4-way splitter makes it easy to share a single headphone or monitor feed across multiple powered hotspots without adding amplification. Designed with balanced TRS I/O, it accepts balanced or unbalanced and stereo/left-right signals, and its metal housing stands up to stage and studio use. It’s important to note this unit only splits the signal — it does not amplify — so each output should feed powered headphones or active monitors.

How does the JIB/S let me share one headphone or monitor feed?

The JIB/S accepts one 1/4" input and provides four 1/4" outputs that mirror the incoming signal. Because the outputs are direct splits, each connected device receives the same audio present at the input.

• Single 1/4" TRS input, four 1/4" TRS outputs
• Balanced TRS wiring supports both balanced and unbalanced connections
• Ideal for powering up to four active monitors or multiple headphone sets

Will this unit boost my signal or replace a headphone amp?

No — the Galaxy Audio JIB/S is strictly a splitter, not an amplifier. It duplicates the source signal across outputs but does not increase voltage or current, so output levels depend on the source device and the load presented by connected gear.

• Not a powered device; requires powered monitors or headphones
• Use with sources that can drive multiple loads or use a dedicated amplifier if necessary
• Saves the cost and complexity of active distribution when passive splitting is sufficient

Is the JIB/S suitable for balanced and stereo setups?

Yes — the JIB/S uses TRS connectors wired to support balanced or unbalanced signals, so it works with stereo outputs and balanced monitor feeds. Be mindful of wiring conventions when connecting to mixers or other pro audio equipment.

• Balanced TRS I/O reduces noise in compatible systems
• Supports stereo left/right when fed by a stereo source
• Compatible with most mixers, interfaces and headphone outputs using 1/4" jacks

How durable and portable is the splitter for studio and stage use?

The JIB/S features a metal construction and compact dimensions that make it both sturdy and travel friendly. At roughly 5" x 2.5" x 1.75" and just 11.2 oz, it tucks into gig bags and racks easily while resisting everyday wear.

• Metal housing for reliable on-stage and in-studio use
• Compact footprint: 127 x 63.5 x 44.45 mm (5" x 2.5" x 1.75")
• Lightweight at 11.2 oz (317.5 g) for portability

Who is this for? The Galaxy Audio JIB/S is designed for musicians, audio engineers, podcasters and small-studio operators who need to distribute one headphone or monitor feed to several powered endpoints without adding amplification. Choose the JIB/S when you want a simple, durable passive solution to split a 1/4" TRS source to up to four outputs for shared listening, monitoring, or quick setup changes in rehearsal spaces, classrooms, live sound rigs, and compact studios.
