    Hi,

    I have HP Pavilion DV8219ea laptop, it has a SPDIF output jack for headphones.

    Normal headphone pin doesn't fit fully in this jack , although I still can hear but if I move or cord of my headphone moves , pin comes out from jack.

    So I am looking for any headphone with SPDIF pin which can fit into my laptop sound output jack.

    I dnt want to attach it to any sound system or something. I just want to plugin my headphones.

    Anybody knows any headphones which comes with SPDIF pin or solution to this problem. :confused:

    Thanks,
    ZINC

    are you sure it doesn't fit in the jack? The jack is supposed to accomodate the standard 3.5mm stereo connection. Have you tried pushing it in fully (including applying a little or moderate pressure)? I can tell you that the jack on mine definitely fits my headphones with the standard 3.5mm jack.
