Question: Would I be able to use a simple 2.5mm to 3.5mm adapter in order to use this mic with Sennheiser HD518's?
Document: This mic works great. After owning the LPs for a while I ordered this mic because I loved the headphones so much more than what I was using for gaming. The only real downside is that when I'm trying to talk to someone over Ventrilo the mic has to be RIGHT by my mouth in order for anyone to really be able to hear me.This mic made a pair of fantastic headphones, in my opinion, the absolute best pair of 2.0 stereo headphones you can get [for the money].
I have this paired with the Xbox One Stereo Headset Adapter and V-MODA Crossfade M-100.Also with my Playstation 4 controller, works perfectly also with voice communications and epic sound quality!Sounds is great for game sound and voice communications with fellow players.My friends were able to hear me clearly and i them.If gameplay sound is too loud, just a simple fix on the settings of the game can fix that.Overall this product is great.
The quality is great and allows you to convert your V-MODA headphones into a gaming headset. I think it also comes with the converter to split the 3.5mm jack into input and output (which is super useful). You can use the compatible headsets with iPhones, but you won't need this to get an inline microphone for that purpose (as far as I know, most of the compatible headsets come with an inline microphone wire).
I love being able to use these with my V-MODA LP headphones. The fact that I can unplug them and take the headphones with me means I don't have to have two separate headphones for gaming and traveling.The only downside is that they are a bit obtrusive when I am using them to game and don't want to use the mic, or when I want to set the headset down on my desk. On my old headphones, the mic would push up out of the way.
Turn any headphones that has a 3.5mm jack connector on the headphone into a Gaming headset with mic. Couldn't find any other brand that has this as a standalone item. Just want I need. The design is pretty nice. Fits nicely and the mic boom can bend to the perfect position.
I have the V-MODA crossfade M-100s and this works great with em. It's nice to be able to use a decent pair of headphones while chatting on mumble or vent the mic isn't fantastic though. Don't get me wrong, it's not bad, but it doesn't give your $300 headphones the quality of mic you would get on a $150 headset. I would rather listen on my M-100s than have my voice be crystal clear so I'm glad to have the option for the mic.
*UPDATE 1/23/14*I got my replacement BoomPro a few days ago and it works flawlessly. No difference in audio quality. Updated to 5 stars, as this mic is in a class of its own, and a much nicer and cleaner of having a mic attached to your headphones (most headphones that have a 3.5mm jack on one of the ear cups; those that come with a detachable cable) for gaming.
The cord that comes with the mic is a little long (six feet) for my taste, so I kept it wrapped up with a twist-tie for easier cable management. The cable build quality matches that of the original cables I received from my LPs, so I know that it will last me a long time. The kit comes with a 3.5mm jack splitter, and is extremely handy for computers or soundcards that have separate headphone and line-in/microphone-in audio jacks.
Only had these for 2 days but will make updates if necessary. So far this mic is very nice. The quality is nice and the controls are simple and efficient enough. My friend on skype says im very clear too. The flexible arm is very easily adjustable but stay put where you leave it which is very nice! Picks up some background noise like people yelling or a loud tv.
This combined with a StarTech MUYHSFMM 3.5mm 4 Pin to 2x3 Pin 3.5mm Headset Splitter and you can make any high quality headphone a headset for your computer.
Answer: This cable is 3.5mm both ends. I think u would need 3.5mm to 2.5 to use with ur hd518s. I would think it would work but haven't tried it. Good luck and sorry if I didnt help.
