STEP 4: CHOOSE AND CONNECT AN AUDIO SOURCE
Your choice of audio source can greatly affect the usefulness of your hearing assistance
system.
SIMPLE INSTALLATIONS
In simple sound systems, the best audio source is usually a Tape or Auxiliary output jack on
the system’s amplifier. Set the Audio Select switch for the type of source you have (See
Figure 6.) and plug in a suitable audio cable. If those jacks are already in use, a simple “Y
cord” can easily make the connection. See Figure 5 for use of the PPA 250’s audio cable.
ENGINEERED INSTALLATIONS
In an engineered audio system, use good wiring practice to properly connect the audio feed
as you would connect any other piece of high quality audio equipment. See the section
Avoiding Ground Loops and Choosing A Good Audio Source.
MULTI–CHANNEL SOURCES
By constructing a simple resistive mixer, stereo (or 3 channel) sources can be connected to
the T4. Additional channels can be accommodated by adding a resistor for each source.
Necessary resistors can be obtained from Williams Sound (Part Number RFC 472) or from
any local electronics parts supplier. See Figure 6.
