Thanks! I had 0 issues whe. I could plug into a phone. Now with singles it's wild and crazy these die so fast. Hoping to NOT spend $100 year in dongles. There had to be a high quality solution for a 3.5mm jack that is not massive in a pocket... Anyone?- bombadilio

AKG K702 65th Anniversary Edition
So I had a question :) I have the AKG 65 Anniversary editions and bought an anilon mod mic. In addition I have been using Astro A50's since I liked the wireless aspect. Would the AKG be the proper choice for gaming / FPS? I was thinking I should give them another shot.- bombadilio
