DarkTrooper[TK] Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 I haven't encountered a trooper that has that system yet. Most folks have an external amp, like an Aker, mounted in their chest piece. An internal helmet speaker system is something I am working on though. I took apart a toy mic (T-pain mic) and I'm planning on rigging it someway into my helmet. I noticed that the speaker does need some sort of enclosure in order to have a loud enough sound. There's a thread some where around here from someone has a "speaker helmet". I think they used plastic toy eggs as the speaker enclosures.

Nicky Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 A garrison bro switched to hovi speakers and I must say it sounds okay, could understand him and he didn't get any feedback issues for what I noticed. However in crowds and noisy environment he wasn't loud enough. Had to kiss him, almost ^^. Some situations such as saying something to a group with helmets on their head or yelling kids around require a bit larger equipment.

calvincarter Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 I tried it. Installed the Skullworx system. Nice system but not loud enough. Tried several systems then went with the Aker amp and IComm system from TKProductsllc.com I highly recommend the Aker route. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK bondservnt[501st] Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 I posted the cricket because I think hovie speakers sound like jimmy cricket. it's a lot more fun to use the aker and icomm setup!~ PTT is my way to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daetrin[Admin] Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 One of my garrison mates did and it came out fantastic. He used a RomFx board and some blue tac to cancel out the feedback. So, it can be done at least, though the wiring was pretty tough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
