The manufacturer-supplied speaker is tiny and crap, as I discovered some years ago. As Tim says, almost any replacement will work.

	I have several things that generate audio, each with their own crappy little speaker. That seems kinds wasteful and redundant. A quick search with Google for portable audio mixers turned up a class of devices used with DV camcorders to mix microphone inputs. A couple accepted line level inputs and provided amplified output. There was even one built into a sub-mini D-25 connector specifically made for aircraft. Add to that a pair of quality lightweight MP3 speakers and you have a one pound audio system with several inputs, each with level controls. "Mike the Strike" wrote in message ...

TIA, Frank (TA) That sounds like exactly what I need in the back of our Blanik L13. All the audio controls are in the front seat, and the speakers are up there, too, so I can never quite hear what's going on with the audio vario or radio from the back, and I never can get my passengers (or some of my students for that matter!) to figure out how to adjust things. -- Matt  |
