FingerLakes 3.5mm Microphone Assembly Mic for Car Vehicle Head Unit Bluetooth Enabled Stereo Radio GPS DVD

Great value. Picks up sound for my phone through car stereo. Good replacement for lost original at a low price. Does not seem to pick up a lot of noise but voices go through without the need to talk louder or closer to the mic. cord is long which may be necessary for some vehicles. I routed from back of the unit to the steering column and up to the instrument area so it only needed about 2 feet so i had a lot of extra cord I tied up behind the unit. easy to install and works well.

Easy to install and worked great with my kenwood stereo. It's a bit bigger than I expected but not anything crazy. It sounds a lot better than the stock one that came with my friends stereo that's the same.

Everyone complained of how muffled I was with interference on mic that came with Jensen stereo, changed that mic to a Sony one. Not much better. This one has been a great improvement. Not perfect but much less better than the other two.

I used this on my car stereo and works great

What i expected for a good price

It's a decent microphone. But it isn't anything astounding. Quality is just like the factory mic that comes with my car. Hear the road with the windows up, any car that passes by, terrible static every now and then. I'd return it if it wasn't such a pain to get behind my stereo to plug it in behind the head unit

Perfect! Works great!

I purchased this mic as a replacement for my Kenwood car stereo head unit. After plugging it it I gave it a test and found it had no audio into the unit at all. After checking and double checking that it was plugged in okay and all settings were correct, the only conclusion I could make is that I was sold a bad microphone. SInce it wasn't going to be used, I was interested to see why the mic didn't work. I started by cutting the cord to do a continuity test from each of the two wires to the 3.5mm plug. After stripping the sheathing away, I was shocked to see the miniscule "wires", not even measurable by common electrical standards (e.g. 22 gauge, 30 gauge and so on). The outer "braid" was barely there and the "center conductor" was even smaller. Both "wires" failed a continuity test from the open end to the plug. And yes, I tested my faithful VOM continuity checker to ensure it works fine. But it doesn't end there. The wires are so thin, I wondered if either would have continuity across each individual wire. Just an end to end test. Again, both wires failed. There simply isn't enough metal for each wire to have end to end continuity. I've worked with electronics for over fifty years, this is the first time I have encountered anything like this. Since this mic works for others, I can only surmise that this is a one-off issue, but still the company must be working with a very small margin on their minuscule wires. By comparison, the OEM Kenwood mic has a robust copper shield and (roughly) 30 gauge copper center conductor. It's one thing to lose a few bucks on a failed product, but losing the time to reorder something else is irritating.
