Hi All,
I have a LS-166/U Loud Speaker, I want to use it with my RT442, but the speaker connector does not match. I understand this speaker came with a U-77/U connector and was later up-graded with a U-229 connector. With this up-grade will it then match the RT 442 ?
If this is correct, where can I find this type of connector.
Thank You.
Rodney

You can get some info from http://www.radionerds.com/index.php/LS-166%7EU

If you are up to it you could wire a plug to connect to the mount for the 442 but another solution is to get an LS-671 and the correct cable. You then have a speaker and can also plug a mic into the LS-671. Trouble is those cables are a bit difficult to find. Also, if pissible, get an LS-671 with the mounting plate and screws - again, a bit hard to find.

LS-671 info is at http://www.radionerds.com/index.php/LS-671%7EVRC
