Re-tasking Salon speakers
Good morning everyone:
The rain has blown over and the ice and snow is gone and just leaving broken trees and a soggy mess. I built an over head TV hide cabinet in Ruff Diamond and since we do not use the back up monitor color TV option (which is analog) and are not going to put a converter on it. I decided to re-task the 4 salon speakers on the underside of the over head cabinets. The front salon speakers were for the cb sound and the back 2 were for the monitor turned color tv set. And there is an external head set or speaker jack on the side of the Vizio TV we installed. I traced the wiring to the back 2 speakers to the BU Monitor molex plug, and cut the wires. Then I removed the front 2 speakers from the variable cb sound speakers. Installing a amplifier, and connecting the front speakers and rear speakers to the separate inputs on the amplifier. All that was needed was an amp and 2 feel of speaker wire, then the front over head vent had been replaced with out a fan, so I tapped into the 12vdc power source for the vent fan and ran it to the amp. re-labeled the over head drivers switch as TV sound. No static and I have front to back balance through the tv set. Oh, the digitel is seldom turned on so the digitel speaker behind the drivers head was re tasked for the cb external speaker sound. Charolette is happy because she does not have to listen to the cb any longer. (hero status for 5 minutes) dinette booth but all the sound was in the Salon, hmm, looking over head in the booth I saw the digitel speaker on/off switch for the booth. I then ran speaker wire connecting the rear curb side Salon speaker to the re tasked booth digitel on/off switch. Now we have TV sound at the booth that can be switched off when we are talking and do not want the TV to interupt. Bottom line, turn on TV Switch on amplifier switch for sound. Remember to switch off the amplifier when TV off as the amplifier still draws 12vdc if left on. Safe travels, Ralph and Charolette Fullenwider "84FC35 "Ruff Diamond" Duncan, Oklahoma |
