I am having major issues trying to find a case that would let me use a standard headphone jack with my iPhone. I have a pair of Grado SR80s that I cannot use with my current case, as well as my Klipsch speakers. I'm looking for a case that has a larger cutout for headphones... does this exist? I currently have an Otterbox Commuter.
Got a tip for us?

Is there any iPhone 4S case out there that works with a standard headphone jack?

There's a wide variety of 3.5mm plug sizes (not the plug itself but the head of the plug). What dimensions do you consider to be "standard"? Don't mistake "what I use" for "standard". Some plugs fit my case. Some do not.
What is a "standard headphone jack?" For some, the Apple earbud is standard because it's so common.
The earbuds that come with the iPhone are more narrow around the jack. Many other headphones are fatter around the jack and don't fit.
Maybe using this like and extension will help you

I was actually looking at the Elago S4 case... I want one in orange 
It's only $10 on Amazon, so I was thinking about taking a shot at it anyway.
