Customers are saying

Customers are pleased with the 6' 3.5mm Mini Audio Extension Cable's ability to extend the reach of their headphones and maintain sound quality. Many appreciate its functionality and affordable price. While some users reported issues with microphone compatibility and occasional static, the majority found the cable to be a useful and effective extension.

    Extension cord does not work well with S7 Edge

    When using the extension cord with my Bose headset, the receiver(s) on the other end say they cannot hear me well at all. When I remove the extension from the headset and plug the headset directly into my phone, they hear me perfectly.

    We used this just a few times before it stopped working. We took it in and were able to exchange it for another due to the manufacturer one year warranty. So far, the second one is doing well, but I don't have high hopes.

    I had to keep my headphones halfway plugged in or it wouldn't work at all and of course since it was only half way in, it would occasionally cut in and out. Returned.

    I brought this to connect to my car using a longer aux cord. However, after a month and a few weeks, when I connect it to my phone, its now unbalanced sounds, and has a shorts in the wiring.

    I really wanted a longer extension cable, but Best Buy didn't have one available. So it comes unplugged with the least little tug. Not what I had in mind. I would recommend it if you don't really need something longer.

    I was looking to use this as an extension for my wireless headphones. Degraded the quality of sound really badly that made it unusable. Ended up getting quality cords form Amazon. If using for this purpose, I wouldn't recommend.

    Used as an extension for headphones. The cable works, if it is bent in just the right way. If it is bent any other way, only one ear works.

    If you have higher end audio equipment and need an audio extension, do not buy this cable. The sound quality is absolutely terrible. Would not recommend for audiophiles.

    I would not recommend this product if you can wait and order a nicer looking and functioning once. Overpriced and looks and feels like an old 80s patch cable.

    Down to the Wire

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This product basically has two components: the wire, and the connectors. The wire feels robust and of good quality, with heavy protective insulation. In short, the wire is great. The connectors, on the other hand, leave much to be desired. One end never feels secure in the jack of any device, and subsequently drops the signal on one side or the other of whichever headphones are connected to the other end. As a simple extension cable at a mid-range price, this product should just work.

      Hi! I'm sorry to hear that the product has been giving you connection issues, I'd like to remind you that you can definitely take advantage of Best Buy's 15 day return/exchange policy to swap it out for a new one in store as it may have just been that particular unit. -Brian Insignia Support BBY-ExBrand_Insignia
