We’ve all had computers break on us before, and one common component that can break is the microphone or headphones jack on your PC. Well instead of spending hundreds to replace your sound board, you can buy our PC Headset to USB adapter instead!

But this adapter isn’t limited to those of us with broken sound boards, it also works if you want to use your PC headset with Macs, or if you want to use it was a PS3 USB headset adapter.

We recently launched our PC headset adapter with phone jack, but we’ve had customers wanting to use their phone headsets with their office corded phone. So we just launched a 2.5mm to RJ9/RJ1/RJ22 (not RJ11) headset adapter for Nortel, Aastra, and most corded phones, as well as a 2.5mm to RJ9 headset adapter for Cisco, Avaya, and Polycom phones.

Note that RJ9, RJ10, and RJ22 phone handset and headset plugs have four connectors, not six like RJ11 plugs. RJ11 is only used to plug the phone into the wall.

Be sure to see which of our Headset Buddy adapters fits your specific model of phone because thev have different wiring.

PC headset to iPhone/Smartphone Adapter

We released a product last fall that combined two of our adapters so you could use your PC headset with your iPhone, Blackberry, Droid, or other smartphone. However, one issue was the users couldn’t get stereo sound by using the adapters in combination.

So we just launched a single PC Headset to 3.5mm iPhone/Smartphone Adapter that allows for stereo sound. So if your smartphone has a 3.5mm TRRS jack (most smartphones do), then this will work for you. For a full list of compatible phones visit the product site.
