Is there a way to set iTunes to play in mono?

I've got a set of speakers, but one of them doesn't work. Is there any way to get iTunes to output to mono, but with both channels?

I'm on Leopard, and going to System Preferences » Sound » Output and sliding the Balance all the way to one side doesn't help, as it doesn't combine the channels.

Solution 1:

A 1/8" mono adapter from Radio Shack might work for you. Of course, while you're there you could just pick up a new set of speakers;)

I'd also bet that Audio Hijack Pro can do it for you, but a license for that will cost you just a bit less than a basic new set of computer speakers.

Solution 2:

• Go to the apple symbol (),
• Go to preferences,
• In System go to Accessibility
• Go to the Audio option
• Select "Play as Mono"

That's it, nothing to do in itunes
