EaerSet 1 Home connector layout

3 replies
Hi!I would like to use the earset for my computer or something, but I don't know the pins of the connector and I don't want to cut it either. I looked for a manual of the beocom4, which has such a connector. But they only tell how to dismantle it. Can anyone help me?Chris
I had a friend do one adapter for me, basically we assumed that the "base" connector was the ground, and the tip and the middle one were for microphone and mini-speaker, we did not knew which. So he made a Y connector like this:

[||stereo 2.5 mm mother jack]]-----(wire from tip)---...-----[[stereo 3.5 mm jack]==>
                                            \----(wire from middle)--...------[[stereo 3.5 mm jack]==>

the stereo conectors entering the computer (3.5 mm) were made "stereo" by soldering the both channel togheter.

And we plug them at chance, when I don't have sound in the headset, I revers the plugging in the computer. It works perfect with Skype.

It might sound dangerous to plug them in reverse, but I doubt that the condenser microphone can be damaged by the low voltage of headphones out from the computer.
