Antlion Audio ModMic Uni Attachable Noise-Cancelling Microphone with Mute Switch, Compatible with Mac, Windows PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One and More

I am using this product with a windows 11 PC, a Schiit HEL2 dac/amp (which I cannot recommend), and a pair of Hifiman Edition XS Headphones.Fit: This thing fits perfectly on Edition XS which is an open back planar magnetic headphone. There is not a lot of surface area for the adhesive to stick as there are air gaps in the headphone and the connector is not sitting flush. Despite this the adhesive makes a solid connection to the headphone and I have no concern of the effectiveness of the adhesive.Sound: The quality of the sound is excellent. Note that your milage may vary as the microphone is passive so you will need adequate amplification from whatever device you plug the headphones into (for me it the shiit hel 2. I do not necessarily recommend this setup because i have had some quality issues with the hel2. Note that you will also need to adjust the microphone settings in the windows setting's app as well as in the game or application that you are using this with.Quality: I cannot think of any complaints in the area of quality. The device feels solid, everything works as it should (no issues with the mute button) and the included accessories are nice.Conclusion: This is a well-built product and performs as advertised. I would buy this product again if need be and have no problems recommending it to anyone that understands what is needed and how to configure/amplify a passive microphone.

After my partner moved in, I needed to move away from using a mic with to much sensitivity so it wouldnt pick them up as we game in the same room. This solution was perfect.I just cant go back to gaming headsets, as i love my Audio technicas to much, and this lets me turn them into a tradtional headset with 2 cables.I will admit, my amazing spring cable that came with my headphones gets nerfed having this one be the new tether, and it has the fault some cables have where it tangles itself, but it does come with clips to attach it to the headphone cable minimizing this a bit.It included 2 magnets in mine which just peel/stick on to my two pairs of headphones I can swap easily as well. Quality is up to snuff for me as well, it plugs right into my soundcard so I can even manage it easily if I need to.Bonus it has a mute switch which is a must on a mic for me. Its a bit expensive, but it makes me setup work which is all I need.Wish the wireless one was a bit cheaper, this works well enough for my use cases.

it worked well for a long time it still works, but the volume on and off switch has quality issues where it doesn’t turn on and off correctly

I’ve used this for a number of months now and it has worked flawlessly. I use it with my SoundBlaster G6 external sound card. This is the key to using this mic. You need a good sound card. The people complaining about this picking up everything is accurate. Because that is what an analog microphone does. There is no software or circuitry built-in to the microphone. It is just a high quality analog mic. Filtering out background noise happens on the software level. If you buy a mic that plugs into a USB port then it might already have some circuitry built into it that filters noise. Depending on how much you spent on that mic determines the quality of that mic and DAC. The SoundBlaster G6 filters out everything very well and this mic allows me to be heard more clearly. The mic mount is magnetic and can stick onto any headphones. I placed it on my Beyerdynamics DT 990 Pro for when I need to do online conferencing or of course… gaming. Now I can scream back at the people telling me I suck.

First and foremost, this is not the best quality of sound that you can get for this price range. That's including both microphones designed with this application in mind or buying something that stands on your desk. That's not saying it's bad...but I'll get to more of that in a bit.In my unit, BOTH of the receiving magnetic pieces that are meant to go on the headphones had their peelable plastic over the adhesive backing already off. (I'm assuming it fell off in transit at one point.) Add to the fact that the amount of plastic clips they include to clip this very long chord up to your headset is a laughable amount, then the sound had better be absolutely spectacular for the price considering the disappointing accessories.The actual quality of what's being recorded isn't terrible. In a quiet environment, it's noticeably clear without being tinny or poppy. It does sound a little flat and hollow but the quality is still pretty good. Throw any amount of background noise or chatter into the mix though and it's no different than any other $20 microphone that you can plug into a 3.5mm port. The fact that this is advertised as noise cancelling is baffling to me. Clearly they are marketing it that way because the microphone is not omni-directional. So, noise cancelling is an absolute falsehood.If the sound was better or there were more clips and magnetic with receivers that I could use out of the box then this might have gotten a 4 star review from me. The fact that I had to peel off the backing, apply the "extra" one that is supplied, and the price all put this as a hard pass from me.
