3.5mm Audio Y Splitter Cable 1 Female to 2 Male Converter Earphone Microphone Cord Adapter for Headphone to Desktop Laptop PC

Just got my adapter in the mail today, plugged it in to my laptop jacks, plugged my Kotion G2000 headset in to the adapter, pulled up Sound Recorder, blabbered something in to the mic, played it back...it sounds great! The adapter works perfectly for the headset I ordered it for, and there's no distortion, no metallic sound to the voice, no buzzing, no hissing.

if you have 3.5mm headphones (with a microphone integrated with headset) and you want to connect to PC that has a separate microphone and audio ports...then this is the adapter for you. I have a cheap gaming headset that I use with PS4 and PC, but was having issues connecting to the PC since the headset only has 1 3.5mm output. This adapter took care of all the issues because it splits the audio and microphone signals of the headset.

I had purchased stereo headphones with a microphone to use on my desktop computer, but the headphones/microphone device had only one plug for both functions. Unfortunately my desktop (unlike most laptops, etc.) required two inputs, one for the mike and one for the stereo headphones. This adapter fixed my problem, and now I can listen and speak while using my German Language lessons.

Although most computers have 4-pole inputs on the front (headset with mike) they don't always work correctly. I have about 6 of these adapters and they have worked on every headset I've tried. The key component is the 4-pole female jack, and it appears to be more standard that some of the computers I've tested (standard 4-pole headset won't work on some computers, but this adapter splits the microphone from the output and always works.) This tells me the adapter is more standard than some of the headset inputs on computers.Sturdy, woven cable-- short enough not to get in the way. Perfect.

I don't know if it's true with every one of these or if I somehow had an odd one, but it didn't work. My headset has the standard 3.5 mm audio jack. When I plugged it into this adapter, the jack wouldn't fit snuggle inside. It popped out a tiny amount, but that tiny amount was enough to render the audio useless. I could force it all the way in and literally duct tape it to stay, but eventually it would work free and disconnect again. And, of course, that just looks lame.
