The Recon 500 easily connects to any device with a 3.5mm jack and is ready to go right out of the box. The patented all-new dual drivers separate high and low frequencies for an extremely detailed audio experience and a powerful soundscape.

... The sound quality was convincing in the test: both the music and the voices of the conversation participants were reproduced clearly and distinctly. The microphone, which is connected to the headset via a 3.5 mm jack plug, reveals slight weaknesses in the voice quality and distracting ambient noise is sometimes transmitted unfiltered.
