An audio interface is the best option for high-quality audio and seamless switching:

1) Connect the audio interface to your Mac Studio via USB or Thunderbolt.

2) Plug your headphones and speakers into the respective ports on the interface.

3) Use the interface’s controls or software to switch between the two outputs.


Good audio interfaces like:


1- Focusrite Scarlett 2i2

2- PreSonus AudioBox

3- Audient iD4
