The volume control does not feed back into your computer or device - it is simply between the computer and the headset. The BoomPro in-line controls adjust volume and can mute the mic. When I say "in-line control", you're probably thinking about controls that play, pause, answer calls and such. The BoomPro features an in-line control of sorts. V-MODA has an abbreviated list of compatible headphone (Beats Solo, Studio, Mixr, Skullcandy Aviator, Hesh 2, Monster Inspiration, DNA) but you can bet that as long as the headphone has a standard 3.5mm jack for its detachable cable, the BoomPro will work. I worried in that review if the Pioneer decision would somehow hinder the headphone from being used with 3rd party cables and it seems I was right. If you read back over the Pioneer review, you'll see that I complained that the connection at the headphone was proprietary (it's a simple 3.5mm plug but it has to be inserted extra far into the cup). The BoomPro worked perfectly with the RHA offering but wouldn't fully seat with the Pioneer. I tried the V-MODA BoomPro cable with the two other headphones with detachable cables I had on hand - the $60 RHA SA950i and the $300 Pioneer SE-MJ591 headphones. These are used by most manufacturers when they add a detachable cable to their headphones. V-MODA has a simple 3.5mm input which is standard for headphone connections. If you are thinking that V-MODA is trying to push their highly touted, and very expensive, top-of-the-line headphone.well, you are wrong. The less expensive M-80 headphone only connects to a single side (the usual way these things are set up). If you look at the V-MODA offerings, the Crossfade M-100 has the ability to attach its cable to either headphone. The V-MODA BoomPro mic is designed to be used with either headphone.
