Gold Plated 2.5mm Male to 3.5mm Female Audio Adapter Converter Headphone Earphone Headset Jack - Stereo or Mono

I bought this for my pair of Sennheiser HD 558 headphones. I opened them up and removed the locking mechanism so I can use any old 2.5mm cable and decided instead to go with a 2.5mm to 3.5mm adapter (this one) and then your standard 3.5mm male to male cable to connect my phones to stuff. Pros 1. Works at least for audio. I don't use a microphone so if you do, I would defer to other people's reviwes...although some say it does and some say it doesn't so I wish they'd put like the product name of the equipment that does and doesn't work so we'd know. 2. The adapter is fairly long which is good for me because the headphone jack is tucked up in my headphones a pretty good ways. 3. It's cheap. Cons 1. I guess it doesn't work for microphones on some devices. I got this solely for listening to audio and for that purpose, it works great. No troubles, ticks, static, or other audio anomalies (at least so far). I'll update the review if I notice something but otherwise this works fine for me.

Worked for FOUR months before the 3.5mm female jack started to go. No longer holds a reliable connection with a standard 3.5mm plug and introduces a lot of line noise. The silver metal cylinder housing the contacts has shown tarnishing and corrosion. I'm guessing the internals have either come loose or also suffered similar corrosion. Would not recommend for any applications where you actually need to disconnect and reconnect the adapter, but it should suffice if you are simply connecting some cables that will remain stationary.

I bought this to work with my Bose QC25 headphones and the V-MODA BoomPro Gaming, VoIP Headset Headphone with Mic. Long story short, I wanted to give my Bose QC25 headphones a better mic. Imagine, the V-MODA and the Bose QC25. Glorious ideas, no? I'm sure it works well, but it doesn't fit the QC25 port. It's so close to fitting, but I'd rather not risk breaking the headphones for a $30 mic. It's a solid connector, so I'll give it 5 stars, but if you're looking to use the same setup, I recommend finding a thinner connector.

It works the way it was suppose to and on the Turtle Beach was great (until I got a Xbox One version that is 2in long). This was great my only issue was keeping up with it so if your hooking this up to something that doesn't need ANY more room and leaving it then buy this. If you are like me going to use this while gaming or going to an event and want to sound off the noise then go get this that is more like 2in long at least to keep up with it more. Works perfectly and no physical problems or "miss hearing" if that's a word.

These are perfect to use for earbuds that you might want to connect into a handheld home phone. Most earbuds fit into our cell phones, the male end being 3.5mm. In order to use (most) earbuds on some handheld model landline phones you need the male end to measure 2.5mm. This size and description by seller worked out perfectly for my family. Hope this helps.

Did not work for what I needed. I don't think the device was at fault but it was too long for the device I needed it for. I needed one with only 2 rings instead of 3.

I use this in my AudioTechnica m50x headphones after removing the proprietary locking mechanism. This allows me to use any 3.5mm cable in my headphones. It fits in there really snug, but with enough sticking out that I can remove it easily. It is perfect for this task. I didn't need a microphone for my purposes.

I bought this to connect a headset (w/3.5mm plug) to a cordless phone (w/2.5 mm jack). When the adapter was in place, the headset was completely unusable. The person on the other end of the phone heard screeching, and I couldn't hear a thing. This product did not work for me at all, would give it a zero rating if that were possible. Edit: I tried this adapter with a second headset...with that one, the sound worked but the mic did not.
