Geekria 4.4mm Male to 3.5mm Balanced Female Headphones Adapter for 3.5mm 4-Pole Cable Connected to Balanced 4.4mm Player Device, Aluminum Alloy Conversion Audio Plug, Gold Plated Adapter

Bought the male 4.4mm to female 2.5mm to connect to a portable dac/amp and the adapter works perfectly! Nice construction, solid connection, with no static or audio disruption. Great value!

I use Sennheiser HD 558 and 598 Headphones at both my gaming computers. But between my 5 year old and 10 year old they are extremely hard on cables. After paying too much for special Sennheiser replacement cables, I decided I would take both sets apart, remove the locking mechanism and use a 2.5mm Male to 3.5mm female adapter so i could use standard headphone cables. Initially I bought some cheap china adapters. Was like $7 for a 2 pack, and while they were basically a drop in option they just didn't hold up over time, when i move my head audio cuts out on one side. So I was back to square 1 looking for a solution. I bought a couple different adapters including one of these, it seems much higher quality and is a much tighter fit. Unfortunately it's not a drop in option. Its slightly larger diameter. I had to remove the chrome bezel and used my soldering iron to melt the hole out a bit larger. It looks fine, and I'm hopeful that this will be a final solution. I really think it will be, the quality is much better than the previous adapter, and it fits both the headphones and cable much tighter. I went ahead and ordered a second adapter for the other HD558 headphones. I do not use the balance feature of the adapter, so i cannot comment on that. However I can say it doesn't hinder anything either. It works fine, I have stereo sound, and maybe it's placebo but i'm 90% sure this adapter made them sound better and louder.

I'm using this with a 4.4mm output to a 3.5mm input on a 3.5mm powered speaker. Fidelity is improved from the 3.5mm output on the device.

Just a 4.4mm to a 3.5mm ( very good) but the presentation itself shows the greatness of the company... great value for the money.. definitely recommend it...

It's important to understand this adapter simply allows you to connect a 3.5mm plug into a 4.4mm balanced socket, it doesn't convert any signals.I used this to connect headphones with a 3.5mm plug into a dongle with a 4.4mm balanced socket. All it does in this case is draw a little more power, because it makes the sound louder. There's no change to the sound quality.In order to receive a balanced signal from a socket, the headphones and cable itself have to be wired in a balanced configuration, otherwise the signal stays the same (unbalanced). Keep this stuff in mind to determine if you only need an adapter or you need to change the entire cable.

I cannot praise the Geekria 4.4mm Balanced Male to 3.5mm (1/8'') Balanced Female Headphones Plug Adapter enough for its exceptional quality and customer service. Initially, I encountered a minor connection issue with the first adapter I received. Since receiving the replacement, I've experienced no issues whatsoever. The audio quality is outstanding, and the adapter seamlessly converts my 4.4mm balanced male connector to a 3.5mm balanced female connector, allowing me to enjoy my favorite music without any disruptions. The build quality of the adapter is impressive, crafted from durable aluminum alloy and featuring gold-plated connectors that ensure optimal audio transmission. The design is sleek and compact, making it convenient to carry around without compromising on its robustness.

quit working very first try. Sadly, I could not return because I had already thrown away packaging materials.

Works great with my 1/8" male plug on my stereo headphones
