Did not want to hijack the last thread about speakers in the chest plate, so I thought I'd start a new one here. I have an Aker 10W amp (1506 I think) and the headset that it comes with. I keep the amp under my chest armor and run the mic wire up under the neckseal and into the helmet. The amp works great, but I'm having issues with feedback, and that is restricting my ability to set the volume at a level I want. It happens as soon as I put the bucket on my head. Anyone else have problems with this?
I tested the system two nights ago after I had a problem at my last troop. When I hung the amp around my neck, put on the headset and then the bucket, things went fine. But when I fully suited up yesterday with the amp back under my chestplate, feedback again. Very frustrating.
