I want to build an intercom for person to person & vehicle to vehicle
I have a set of Lynx Micro System headphones that works great, but after a few hours, they feel like they are driving my glasses into my skull, they are on the heavy side because they were designed for open cockpit flying, plus I want to make something for my son and/or friends so we can talk while we are out in our off road vehicles.
My plans are to use throat microphones and over the ear stereo head phones that can be plugged into a walkie-talkie type radio to talk and also into music. The voice and the music would stay local so I don't hear his music and he doesn't hear mine, but when the 'press to talk button' is pressed, all headphones hear what is being said.
That's pretty much what I have already, but only one set of headphones that cost over $1000 when I bought them.
Lighter weight stereo headphone are readily available at a lesser price and I don't need the noise protection offered by the Lynx, Flying is usually very noisy.
I'm hoping some of the audiophiles here might have a suggestion or two and offer a good place to start from.
Thank you,
Kinarfi
