Has anyone used these setups? I'm curious about Anchors intercom packages in general. I know they make some super durable stuff, but I haven't had my hands on any of their comm stuff. I did a forum search with little results so any input on these setups is appreciated.
Just in case anyone was googling this issue I wanted to follow up on my own topic.
I ended up purchasing the wired and wireless Portacom system.
Wired-
This system has been awesome! Comfortable headsets, solid build, and great audio quality. I installed the system on existing wiring and have had over a year of reliable hard use. After receiving the kit I disassembled the "branch box" to find it was a metal box with xlr terminals and one resistor. When I spoke with Anchor Audio they confirmed it was not necessary to use the branch boxes to split the signal. Hopefully that little tidbit will help someone else who is looking to install this system on existing infrastructure. Just be sure to respect the cable size and length guidelines. For the price I doubt you can find a better wired intercom system.
Wireless-
Simply put the wireless system is cheaply built, bulky, and has poor audio quality. I would not recommend purchasing the wireless system for mission critical applications.
