This is a make-up for the lack of content from the past few months. Major changes have been made to add more zones to the system. Google Video Link drive.google.c...
Great collection! A lot of buildings are being gutted or torn down and a lot of these speakers are being thrown away possibly. If only there were more collectors like you.
This was only temporary setup at the time and usually don't spread the speakers out but thought at the time to make a special video. Most of the time the speakers stay on the shelf or the walls all connected to listen to music.
Since I Have My Ipod Classic, I Will Put The Intercoms On My Living Room, Kitchen, Hallways. Bedrooms, And Outside Of The House Such as The Patio, And It Will Actually Sound Pearl!!!!
For the tone problem, I suggest getting an mp3 board and have the AUX relay of the UTI1 make the board play the sound. Page 15 and 16 of the UTI1 manual best explain the feature. Other than that, this was probably my favorite update out of all of them. It sounds like a big box warehouse store now 😂
31:40 Muisc is on 1 seconds later music turns off and everyone wonders why and then announcement system turns on and 31:42 that is Sound of Annoucnements turning on in Bozeman's whole food market
Looks like you cleaned out an old building that was being torn down.. you got a damn pbx also? Lol. The hospital i work at uses one of the valcom systems you had.. and meridian/ avya pbx phones..
The collection has been getting bigger little by little over the past seven and a half years. Most have been purchased on eBay and a handful of them I saved from a mall back in late 2020.

Mr. Mercury, What got you into constructing institutional grade audio systems in your home and collecting the loudspeakers/equipment that goes with them? This is a very unique hobby. Does your line of work involve installing such systems? I also hope you remain careful with your outside zone. As you said, your whole neighborhood can hear it (especially with the horns). Maybe worth getting rid of it and not just disabling it. Regards, Ben
I've always had these visions of real life content being played on intercom speakers and intergrading phones onto the system since I was a kid. Here I am years later and making it more advanced. Stay tuned for the next intercom system update video within the next couple of weeks. The outside zone is disabled and might me removed since it's very rarely used.
I look for the songs in the TH-cam audio library since they provide copyright free music. As far as the announcements I used an old Kmart instore announcements that I spliced in audacity. Here is a link to the full video Kmart video th-cam.com/video/Jk2PTW86AEY/w-d-xo.html
The wires come long from factory but some installers like to cut some of the wires short that will not be used. If there's enough wire to work with then its possible to extend the wire with an extra wire you may have.
Hey me mercury fixit I have the FIFINE® Ultra Low-Noise 4-Channel Line Mixer for Sub-Mixing 4 Stereo Channel w/c so I can generate my own tone where does this go I have a Bogen uti1 with a Toa amp
The UTI one audio output that is going to the back of the amplifier would get moved over to input one on the FIFINE mixer using a 3.5 mm aux cable with one end cut off to expose the wires. The audio output from the FIFINE mixer would go to the back of the Toa amplifier where the UTI one used to connect at using the TEL input terminals using a 3.5 mm aux cable with one end cut off to expose the wires for connection. Make sure to adjust the volume from the FIFINE accordingly to avoid feedback when making a page.
I have a question so I have a Bogen UTI, one with a TOAA amplifier and it has three speakers and it buzz when I’m taking and even when there is no page being made. Is there any way I can shut that down or stop it?
That is a ground loop you are experiencing and have dealt with on my system many times in the past. If you go to a local hardware store in your area, you can use a doorbell transformer to get rid of the ground loop and also it will match the audio impendence where the page sounds better on the speakers. The doorbell transformer method works the best and has been done on my system. The side of the transformer with the wires sticking out will go to the TEL input side of the amplifier, and the side with the screws will go to the output side of the UTI1. As far as the size in VA of the transformer, it does not matter, but try to stick with one that is 10 VA and don't go any higher than that since it is not necessary.
What do we really need to start our paging system because I have a bogen speaker , analog phone and digital. I heard about the bogen uti-1 do I need that an a amplifier?
Do you have (or plan to get) an Atlas P900 or Quam BR8WP? The latter was discontinued years ago but the former is still in production. They look very similar - I have a hard time telling them apart.
Here's a Thing Nicole, When You're Listening To Texas Tornados "Little Bit Is Better Than Nada" You Can Watch "Sworn To The Sword" From Steven Universe! So? What Do You Think Nicole?

This is the coolest thing ever -- I have a weird obsession with intercom systems
It's a great hobby to get into especially if you like to listen to lots of music on a daily bases.
These Intercoms Are So Awesome, The Sound Quality Is So Pearl!
Pearl Huh, Well I Would Give You A Song For You Nicole?
"Is Anybody Goin' To San Antone" By Texas Tornados!
That Sounds Kinda Pearl.
It Sure Is @@NicoleZelda1998, It Sure Is.
This man's house is haunted by intercom speakers
Love it, and that is always been a dream of mine since I was a kid.
Great collection! A lot of buildings are being gutted or torn down and a lot of these speakers are being thrown away possibly. If only there were more collectors like you.
I wish I could go and save every intercom speaker out there as well especially from schools.
You are so lucky to have all these intercom speakers. I wish I had one and the phone to talk in it this was a great video
Thanks for the Christmas treat! I was glad to be able to give my old speakers a new home where they would be put to great use!
I wouldn’t have every speaker lying around like that in my house, but nice collection and video. I prefer organization. 👍

Amazing system this time around! Happy Holidays!

What an impressive assortment! Thanks for sharing

You Do? Can You Play The Song From Christopher Cross "Arthur's Theme (Best That You Can Do)" On Your Intercom Speakers, Nicole?
Sure?

Long time no see! You sure do have a magnificent collection of speakers. Sadly I won't be showing much intercom stuff in my videos no more.

You ought to install some bogen push to call switches on your system

so cool. wonder if you could make a tut
Next video I want to hear some Disney Epcot entrance music on these speakers. I have a pair of Lowell 8 inch models with 8watt transformers
That will happen in the next major intercom system update video with in the next couple of weeks.

Wow Im impressed did all the speakers play music
All have music playing on them including paging.
@@CristianOrtiztechmaster926Wow
I did hear Music in the background It seems the Speaker has a slightly delayed with the music comes on after the page
My first Elementary School use that speaker 15:40
If it’s possible I’ d love to see a Sound Sphere speaker on your system
Maybe one day since that is on my wish list when the price is more reasonable.

What is the radio program you use?
I look for the songs in the TH-cam audio library since they provide copyright free music. As far as the announcements I used an old Kmart instore announcements that I spliced in audacity.

I hope you put every speaker away before your wife came home! 😁
I don't have to worry about that and don't have to deal with the drama.
@@CristianOrtiztechmaster926 Are you a single man or what? 😮
I don’t think the one in the kitchen I believe thats a c10

There will be a video on how to setup a Bogen UTI-1 for a 70 volt system around noon today in detail.
Can you get a 70v TIC Outdoor Speaker to add to the paging system outside🌳🌲(but can be buried outside)
But for the ground buried
Not a bad idea and have a garden going on in the front yard.
The speaker needs 8ohm, so you want to get a transformer seperately or you can make your own, there is a 70 volt version, but it's more expensive
Do you have (or plan to get) an Atlas P900 or Quam BR8WP? The latter was discontinued years ago but the former is still in production. They look very similar - I have a hard time telling them apart.
I have an older P900 in the workshop.
Do you know how to find something that store announcement playing that is usb drive
Do you still have your Wheelock 34TS
