I just picked myself up some Altec-Lansing ATP3's without realizing they didn't have a headphone jack. Since this is something I really would like to be able to use, is there a switch-type product I can buy somewhere for my needs?

I want something stylish if possible :). Preferrably something that goes with my sleek black speakers and has a black cord.

you can try a Y adapter, but that will decrease quality.

i have a y cable myself for my various speakers, but that's something altogether different since i have speakers with a headphone adapter.

I imagine I could get something like that at Radio Shack, right? I want something with a manual switch, so I don't lose audio quality (kind of defeats the purpose of nice speakers). I think, if they sell a one-end male and one-end female audio cable that I could accomplish that, simply by mounting that connector to my desk and switching out cables conveniently.

Check out the EZ Jack Headphone thingy from Cyberguys. It has a headphone jack and connects between your sound card and speakers and automatically turns off the speakers when you plug in the headphones.
