@nrdesign1991 Ahh, I see. I didn't notice that.

@gosmiti He just solders the two wires to one connector.

@nrdesign1991 The jack he's using has 3 contacts: Left+, Right+ and Common Negative. That way you get two seperate audio channels. :)

@ffKingcreole Indeed, It's a stereo jack, but both microphone outputs seem to be soldered to just 1 pin, meaning you'd get, at best, summed mono output on either the left or right channel. Also, these electret mics need a power supply, around 3-9V supplied via a suitable resistor and then capacitive coupling to remove this DC from the output, so the only thing I can think that you could use this with is a PC soundcard mic input, which has this supply, but is mono anyhow!

What you're soldered is a mono microphone, which will not create a binaural effect
