I'm looking for something I'm not sure exists.

I want a headphone for listening to music from my computer but I don't
want something that covers my whole head. I want it just to be an ear
piece and I just want it in one ear, but getting both and left and right
signals, since I can't switch to mono through my computer.

I don't really want to buy the double ear piece set and have just one
ear piece hanging down unused. That's why I'm looking to see if they
make just single, stereo ear pieces? Mono will also be fine.

Thanks
Steve

Stanton sells one for DJs.

Or you can make your own. My wife has hearing in only one ear, and so
I have made a number of one-ear headphones with a pair of 47 ohm resistors
to sum both channels to mono.

I should have said earphones, like single ear buds.

Ear buds and IEMs typically have fairly flat (resistive)
impedances, so a simple resistive summer composed of say a
couple of 15 ohm resistors will do the job.
