Darth Voorhees[501st] Posted August 14, 2008 Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 Anyone know where to get one, or something similar? I think the newton isnt made anymore, but i thought there was some new version out. My triktoys amp just isnt loud enough, and everyone who has that newton amp i can hear them from quite a ways away, and i can understand them clearly. People stand right in front of me, outside on a busy street, and they are always "what?", so i really need to fix this. Any other suggestions would be good too. i had the hovi spekaers, but disconnected those to opt for a speaker in the chest plate, its a bit clearer, but still not very loud. I do however want to avoid the expensive stuff, (like rom fx n such)as i dont see it necissary for a tk or scout. Anything anyone may knowwould be helpful. thanks all!

joryayer Posted August 15, 2008 Report Share Posted August 15, 2008 Now is this tear-apart-able (yeah new word) so that you can attach it to aerator speakers instead? Or would this be better for the chest speaker aspect...? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tk0000[501st] Posted August 16, 2008 Report Share Posted August 16, 2008 You'll need a powered mic for the radio shack mini amp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyper[TK] Posted August 20, 2008 Report Share Posted August 20, 2008 I just got a Newton amp and I'm having a tough time. It seems to be too big to place under my chest plate. I put it under and it pushes out so far it looks really bad. Started to tear it apart to see if it can fit a different way. Still pretty bulky Any thoughts on this? Help would be greatly appreciated, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BH5204[501st] Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 I tried to slim mine down, but it's going to be challenging. the back holds all those batteries in place and the front holds the speaker in place. You'd have to place the speaker somewhere else and just keep the back half of the plastic. That would allow you to lose the front. those newtons are so loud, you might be able to fit it in the back plate. The volume shouoldn't be a problem. Modify the circle part to be covered by a small amount of mesh painted white and blow it out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Lord[501st] Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 I have had no luck in getting volume from my Aerator speakers setup so went with the Radio Shack Amp in the front chest plate and a powered headset. Works great and even sounds trooperish. The Newton can be made to work, but you would have to remove the speaker and figure out how to wire it to the front and keep the battery pack and board hidden somewhere else (in the back armor?). Doable? probably. but to much work! Ive seem some troopers with it just clipped around the waist as is... but I think thats cheating!

Darth Voorhees[501st] Posted November 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2008 imnot trying to hide mine. im just going to clip it onto the belt. Thats what my garrison mates do. Havent been aboe to get ointoch with one of them tonight so i posted another thread about it. Ive heard that when people take the newtons apart they dont work, so im not going there. just gonna hang it from my belt. Noone notices them but "our people" anyway, and its white and fits in with the armor. And everyone will be able to hear me at a busy con.
