Howdy,

I am looking for a 2-pin IEM cable with a microphone for Teams calls on a PC. I tried an in-line mic on a cheap KZ cable, but every time I moved my head, I’d cut out. I would be very grateful for any recommendations or feedback from your experiences before I buy another cable.

I got these for $12.22 with free shipping and they work really well:

It doesn't come with a pop foam filter, but at $12 there's room in the budget for $1 pop filter :)

Some others I've bought that work are:

They come in different lengths and connectors, just examine carefully to make sure what type. Like if it's .78mm flat base, or b-plait which is recessed like a key in the shape of a "B".

Thank you! The first two listings have connectors that look a little short for my needs, but the third looks spot on. How’s the sound? I like to listen to music while not on calls, so sound quality is important to me as well.

They're all transparent unless defective with cables. The mic on them isn't bad, much better than the pinhole ones on the cable that never faces the right way when moving around. They just do need a little $1 bag of pop filters. I like the ones that come in a 6ft length, if that has the connector type you need. Of course a light 3.5mm extension cable solves the problem too. The only noise you might hear is if it's plugged into a powerful computer like a sound card in the back near the video card. On the phone or a Soundblaster X1 which has mic support, it worked really well.
