Awesome idea..thanks. Turning my military themed jeep into a Nighthawk cockpit ..lol

Great! I was looking for something like this for our church AV team. ...small, low budget operation.
Many thanks...man those asa headsets have doubled in price since you posted this video...ouch...lol
Yo imma have to get me one of these!
4 year update video?
Transmit switch. Ptt basically.
I had a 2 place setup in a Miata I had.
Miata? Eewwwww
Xmtsw = transmit switch.
If you wire this into an aircraft audio system, a transmit switch is required to transmit over the aircraft radio.
Could this be used to also transmit with GMRS radio?

It will need the correct adapter, but talking on the radio is what that is for
what seats do you have in that jeep I want thos how much and where. do a review on them
I got them on eBay. They were called Icon racing seats. I paid $300 for the set. They have held up well. My seat is starting to tear just slightly but I also leave the top off all summer so I imagine, no matter what brand seat I had, it would've started doing something like that.
Did you try listening to music with this set up and if so, how was it?
Ben Magee, yes we did. The music wasn't super loud but it definitely works from a phone or radio with an 1/8 inch headphone jack.
Problem is you need invidual control for volume
Can it be connected to a gmrs radio?
I would guess Xmit= transmit SW= switch. Basically a toggle for the mic.
Your right. It's a trigger feature to by pass the vox
Perhaps it is used for transmitting via radio. I notice it is only on the two main inputs, like for a pilot/copilot, and the other two don't need the ability to xmit over the radio. Now I gotta look this things manual up.
Kinda thinking about something like this. Don't need it yet but am curious to know more about it. Did you get the headphones used? Because I can only find those for around $110. Also, if you ever figure out how to hook this setup to a CB radio system with a PTT, let me know. That would be awesome. Thanks for the info.
AceInvader yes, they were used off of eBay.
Did you ever do something like this and hook it up to a CB? I'm looking at wiring the CB to be PTT and didn't know If you had any advice?
@@jacobphilbrook4414 No unfortunately did not. Looked into getting a handheld ham radio as that seems simpler, and a lot more common it seems. That has available adapters with 3.5mm inputs which my intercom has outputs for. I guess you can use something like this with a splitter, one for separating audio and mic inputs, then this has the ptt www.amazon.com/BTECH-Connector-Adapter-Compatible-Headsets/dp/B019YJMRZS
I did get a couple headsets and an intercom and its a lot of fun on the highway with the top off on the Jeep. Don't care if I look like a huge nerd.
By the way if you have music playing through your headset does it automatically mute when someone talks like a noise VOX cancellation system?
Robert Drinkwine The music does not mute. There also is not a way to control how loud the music is. Even if you turn the volume all the way up, it stays at the same volume as long as your phone is at max volume. It also does not stop playing when someone talks. It’s very light in the background
@@liljeepfamily Does the phone volume switch adjust the volume at all? When you say “…very light in the background.” How light are you talking? Can you still hear it good at highway speed with the doors off.
how did this turn out? good sound quality and usability driving down the road?
deereboy90, definitely for the front seats it was good. The rear seats pick up a little more sound from the air flying in. I'm happy with them though.
Lil Jeep Family I have a couple of David Clarks already, so I'm hoping them in conjunction with that avix box will make a great combo.
The x jack is for the ppt switch like on the joystick of the airplane
hallobaaaby, what does the PPT switch do?
Push To Talk, it sends your voice out through the Mic cable when hooked into an aircraft com system. Normally you have this on the planes joystick. Usually your unit would be voice activated, no need for switch since you are not transmitting out of the jeep. Could you hear your own voice slightly amplified when you talk on your headset's mic even without other headsets hooked?
PTT Push To Talk, not PPT.
XM/TSW is for for push to talk for radio
Can this be simply plugged into GMRS radio?
@@MrMrsregor maybe with the correct adapter but the radio connection on these are different
@@beeblecar okay, that is kind of what i though. thanks for the info!
