This review is intended for GAMERS, so if your looking at this mic for other purposes, you may be better off reading another review. That said, I have the UE 6000 headphones, which are Apple ready, and wanted to use them for online gaming and chat on xBox One online. Because the UE 6000s are Apple-ready, the inline mic will NOT work due to ground and mic rings on the jack being flipped from the "standard" used in the xBox One headset adapter. But, using this mic with the UE 6000s WORKS PERFECTLY!! This cord will work with ANY Apple based headphones (so long as your headphone cord is detachable).
The cord is of impressive build and performance quality! Other player's voices are clear (limited by your headphone quality of course), and everyone you're talking to will hear you clearly. Nobody has complained about the quality of this mic. The mic receives sound on both sides, so it's basically "reversible", which means it doesn't matter if your cord plugs into the L/R side of your headphones. As for the mic stem, it's perfect! Very flexible, and will retain whatever shape you place it in. It's lightweight, so it's not going to fatigue the wearer after long term use. And the max volume while playing online is LOUD (though this may be attributed to the UE 6000s). Many people have complained of low volume while using the headset adapter with whatever headset they're using. The quality of the cord exceeds the $30 cost, so it's a value purchase. Rather than buying a new set of Turtle Beaches, Trittons, etc, this mic's value becomes an even greater value.
***- The xBox One Headset Adapter is a MUST! This cord will not bypass the need for the adapter.
Because this cord wasn't designed exclusively for gaming, the cord is on the long side (6ft long). However, it does come with a velcro strap to tie the cord and shorten it. It's a solid solution, or you could just use a twist-tie for the same purpose. The only slight complaint that could be made about this mic is that if you rub it, you'll hear some SLIGHT muffling in your headphones. But, you only really notice it if there's no sound coming through the headphones. When playing, I never noticed any sound interference at all.
Rather than buying the Polk 4-Shot gaming headset for $160, or the XO Sevens for $135, I'd strongly recommend this alternative for the same price- this V-Moda mic ($30), the xBox One Headset Adapter ($25), and the UE 6000 headphones. As of 3/26/2014, these headphones are listed on Amazon for $80 (in white), and $100 (in black). I did a side-by-side comparison with Beats Studio, and these 6000s sounded better/clearer with just as much bass if you wanted. Plus, you can then use these headphones "on the go" unlike turtle beaches, tritons, etc. And their build quality is far superior to the Polk and others.
In conclusion, this mic is perfect for turning ANY pair of detachable cord headphones into a gaming headset when used with the xBox One Headset Adapter. The construction and performance are top notch, and the mic stem is highly customizable. If you already have a quality pair of headphones that you feel would make a great gaming headset, then buying this mic is a no-brainer. If you don't already have a quality pair, it's worth your time and money to put together a gaming headset using this mic. And if you go this route, start by looking at the UE 6000s!!

Great mic solution
Had a desktop mic before. Switched to this plugged into modified DT770 with 3.5mm jack. Sounds great and great value.
