Default Faulty XDA Stereo Headphone Adapter?

Hi Guys,

Just purchased a PPC Techs XDA/XDA II 3.5mm Stereo Headphone Adpter from Expansys after reading some threads here, im noticing I only get stereo if I leave the 2.5mm jack from the XDA not plugged in all the way, is this a common problem or do I have a faulty adapter?

Cheers Baz

I did the same and bought on the advice of that post but only had one channel coming through.
I gave up and had someone who is very handy with a soldering iron and shrinkdown sleeving to remedy things.
He took my XDA headset and cut the earphones off it.
Then he grafted my sony fontopia earbuds in their place and
made an excellent job.
now I am happy but would warn anyone else off the expansys and belkin adaptors as I have them both and neither are any good

Default Re: best headphones

It seems you are talking about a bluetooth headset. We: 'bout wired ones.
