I bought a few of these (different brands) off Amazon a while back while trying to get my desk audio setup sorted and the audio output on them usually sounds okay. Some of them have noticeable background hiss at any volume.
The four-pin versions (with mic input) tend to fall down pretty hard, though. Either the volume is so low you have to yell to get anything into the PC at all, or there is severe cross-talk where any audio coming out gets induced into the input. (Turns out people on zoom are not fans of hearing echo of themselves with a 1-second delay!)
