So, I look at the phones we do have and they have a small phone like jack (4 pole) that allows them to use an antiquated headset (wired) that really dosen't do it for them. So, I started thinking, it wouldn't be much to wire a 4 pole jack to a 1/8" or 1/4" jack. Once that was done then a myriad of wireless possibilities would open up using wireless stage gear.
Just for my own sake, myself NOT being one of the smart people, let me think out loud with you here...
You ALREADY have the equipment in place where the office folk can use a wired headset? Is that what I'm reading in the quote above??
If I read that right, what you're looking for is a way to use a headphone amp to strengthen the signal on EACH of the four phones, then spit out the signal to four independent sets of wireless headphone/mic rigs?? So you're looking for:
1) four headphone amps, output from each of the four phones??
2) Or a 4-input headphone amp that will spit out four independent "mixes" from each phone???? How would a person take a 4-input headphone amp, and split the signal among four different telephone?? Hmmm.
I have worries. Impedence mismatching, wireless interference, mangling of signal from the phone(s) since a phone has such low signal to start with. And how would you route this with a 4-input headphone amp?? It's not like you have a mixer to route four different calls to four different telephones. Even if you did the signal would suck. Hmmm.
Anyway, I'm asking questions, cause I'm not clear. Thinking out loud, as I said.
This is a very cool idea. Write more, I'll think out loud some more. We do enough of this we'll rope in some of the smart people.
