Hey

so a friend of mine wants to put a stereo in his tractor, but doesnt want/have room for speakers. my question for you is can i hook a headphone jack directly to the front left and right speaker wires?

thanks

How about an MP3 player? Sounds like a reasonable solution.....

He wants an installed stereo so he can listen to tunes with headphones?

I can understand it. Tractors suck for speakers. Nowhere to mount them and the drone would drown out the music. The battery on my iPod only lasts for like 4 hours and my uncles can be in a field for up to 8 hours so it makes more sense to me to have a set radio that is with the tractor that you dont have to worry about dropping or breaking or charging.

if it has a battery you could hook up a charger to charger your unit as your playing same as if you were in a car. i'd just go with an ipod with headphones or something similar.

he has hearing problems and can hear with headphones better than with speakers plus the background noise doesnt help. his stereo doesnt have RCA out, so what i was thinking was to strip off the RCA ends and wire it to the speaker wires, but i wasnt sure if the resistance/power would work out or if it would just blow the headphones.

Headphones on while driving hmmmm sounds pretty @!#$ stupid to me. Not to mention illegal. Tell him to get a hearing aid and put some speakers in the car.

Does he already have a stereo and you just want a way to use headphones?
