I think it looks awesome when a dj does that. When I was the technical director of CJMQ way back when, I installed a telephone headset into the broadcast room. It seemed such a natural way to monitor the next record up. There was even one of those shoulder nubs on the handset to reduce the chances of the handset popping out and onto the turntables (still happened anyway) This project is all about the trashy TelCo microphone. I only wired in the headset speaker because it was there and it was easy. The mic has its own sound and these handsets are atom bomb proof. ps: yeah, when I picture Terrence Parker he has the telephone handset clutched to his head like an 80s stockbroker On 24.04.18 11:16 , negativesaucer wrote: > Terrance Parker in Detroit was well known for using an old telephone > handset instead of headphones when DJing... > > On Tue, Apr 24, 2018, 1:04 AM Kenny Balys <xxxxx@xxxxxxxx.xxx > <mailto:xxxxx@xxxxxxxx.xxx>> wrote: > > > Convert an old telephone handset into a balanced carbon microphone > and mono headphone combination.
