Convention Paper

Non-Destructive Conversion of Approved Ear Defenders into Communication Headsets

Authors: Cohen, Abraham; Sebesta, George J.; Hofer, Alan

AES Convention 52 · Paper 1073 · October 1975

Abstract

OSHA and similar approved ear defenders are converted to either one- or two-way communicators, without breaking through the defender structure. Driving the defender at selected external points by means of inertial transducers or by direct audio induction through the cup using a split transformer to energize an internal transducer produces acceptable and intelligible response within the defender. Demonstrations will be made.
