Hi,
Can anyone suggest the best way to add an auxiliary audio input into an existing headset? This is to allow my daughter to listen to music while in the back of the aircraft, so I don't want it through the intercom etc. She currently has a Pilot PA-51 Children's headset, though if anyone has a solution which will also work with ANR converted DC 13.4s that would be great as she'll use them once she's big enough (or I find a smaller headband to fit).
I presume you can't just wire an input jack to the speakers in parallel and a simple passive mixer made from resistors would drop the audio levels - so what's actually inside a passive nom-ANR headset with an aux input?
Many thanks,
Tim
