I have apple EarPods from my iPhone 6.
I also have a bluetooth receiver that produces stereo via a 3.5 mm male jack.
Is there a female / female converter to convert
the 3.5 mm universal male plug
to the 3.5 apple earbuds plug for audio only

the apple headset has a minijack connector which works 100% with all 3.5mm minijack stuff it's just the extra ring which control the button and mic which is special for apple
so any 3.5mm minijack female to 3.5mm minijack female converter would work

Thanks for the reply.
Thats what I thought,
but no go.
I should have mentioned,
I could swear I have that exact converter.
And the connection is super flaky.
The slighted touch and I loose the sound.
Of the two rings on the Bluetooth male connector,
the top ring in 1mm higher than on the top ring on the Apple EarPods.
Where the Apple ends the Bluetooth begins,
if you can follow what I'm describing.
Which is why I was thinking maybe there is an Apple to 3.5 converter.
And that is where I believe the problem lies.
It maybe the bluetooth is not the perfect quality.
Or it maybe the apple is proprietary.
I really didn't want to buy another type of earbuds as I really like the Apples.
But I might have to for compatibility sake.
Maybe go down to the electronics shop and try a few connector/converters to find one that WILL work consistently.

After further targeted testing,
it IS the Apple male plug that is the issues with my converter.
Sorted Altronics 3.5 female female adapter
