Whirlwind THS 5 Talkback Headphone Box
The THS 5 is the announcer console for the operator who wants to build their own headphone mix. Two balanced XLR headphone inputs each have a volume control and a pan pot for left/right placement, the announcer own microphone can be added to the mix with its own volume and pan, and a master headphone volume sets the whole thing.
Main and talkback microphone outputs are provided with Mic On/Off, Cough and Talkback switches. The talkback output is line level with a trim control, and the main microphone output remains live on air if power is lost, when dynamic microphones are used. Headphones from 30 to 600 ohms can be driven to full volume.
