These types of holes are called flatted round and come in many diameters in electronics to suit connectors and switches that need an element of anti rotation as part of the their assembly. As others have said a lock washer may be sufficient when a plain hole is drilled in the panel, especially...

Another Bodymics.com recommendation from me.On the subject of re-terminating mics, especially for Shure transmitters, you will need to add the recommended resistor based on the model of mic you're working with. If you are reusing the connector it should be easy as the resistor should already...

I recently added the Makita XTS01Z to our stock for T50 size duties. Works well with the battery adapters to match the Dewalts we use for the majority of cordless tool duty. It's made facing work with Luan a speedier task.

I built my own last summer for 3, 4, and 5 pin XLR by modifying an inexpensive tester from Amazon. Essentially rehousing the control board in a Hammond enclosure with a suitable collection of connectors. Prior to that I had been using a set of 5 to 4 pin adapter cables with the Hosa CBT-500...

The gold standard for wire marking is probably the Brady labeller. Since I also do a fair amount of permanent installs I have the BMP-61 but for a casual user the BMP-21 probably makes more sense. The 61 takes wider stock and both have options for self laminating types; the 21 has some options...

Shoot me a PM and I can email you other files but the bulk of the knowledge is to be found here:https://service.shure.com/s/article/how-do-i-make-a-wireless-gooseneck-microphone?language=en_USDan

I may have been one of the folks who chimed in on a post about using a Microflex gooseneck on a beltpack as I am still planning on adding that to a lectern setup in the future. I have tested this with a MX391/0 tabletop boundary mic which is already terminated to the standard TA4F pinout for...

There are several questions before you can get a full recommendation. Are you planning on flying these or are they staying on the ground? Do they need to act as wedge monitors ever? Are you hoping for zones of coverage or are they all getting the same feed? What horizontal and vertical coverage...

Another thought I had which is a little harder to pull off but could provide another path would be to find a match to the correct pot even if it may not have the correct bushing and shaft combination as this rather special one has. It is sometimes possible to disassemble the pot and switch the...

A trick that I learned from elderly guitar amp maintenance is that you can sometimes get away with restoring the track/wiper with deoxit once the pot is opened. Another option is to "adjust" the wiper arms that ride on the track to contact a different zone of travel. In general if you get a...

A major problem I could see on using Bluetooth devices not mentioned so far is latency. There's a good chance you'd end up with a cacophony of out of sync audio.Definitely would echo the 70V speaker system idea. Cheap to wire and plenty of options for speakers as well amps out there. If budget...

https://hosatech.com/products/analog-audio/patch-bays/mhb-350/The above module will bring do the normalling you need at a very attractive price point. You'd need to build adapters to go in and out of this.Another alternative would be to use a plain XLR panel like...

My assisted listening install has this need and my solution is to the following assembly:A standard truss type clamp: https://www.globaltruss.com/jr%20clamp A 3/8" bolt or flat head screw to a K&M thread adapter (the Euro kind often included with mics)...

I'm tackling a similar project for the school I am TD for. My design goal has been to provide a high intelligibility feed for assisted listening first and then also have that signal for backstage relay and program feeds to headsets. My approach has been to build up a mix from spaced pair...

I have done this conversion in the opposite direction (Par to Parnel). The basic shells are identical castings and with the assembly manuals from ETC for both models you'd be able to determine what parts you'd need. I ordered all the parts via Full Compass.Dan
