The EJ-8
Basic Information
The EJ-8 is a multi-input adapter box that allows you to use one or more pieces of
audio/visual equipment with the speakers and volume of an existing public address (P.A.)
or sound system. Several audio devices can be used simultaneously. The EJ-8 provides
everything you need to simply connect tape recorders (of all types), record players, movie
projectors, video cassette recorders, telephones, or electronic instruments (such as guitars
or keyboards) to the microphone connection of an existing sound system.
Even though these audio devices use different plugs and strengths of signal, with
the EJ-8 and its basic set of cables, these usually incompatible audio devices can work
together. The EJ-8 provides the necessary matching and isolation to protect the existing
public address system while providing a high quality audio interface to the system.
The EJ-8 has its own volume control which allows you to balance the signal of
the incoming sound to the needs of your sound system. When more than one audio
device is connected through the EJ-8, the EJ-8 serves as a master volume control. The
EJ-8 uses the power from the signal itself; this means it doesn’t need batteries or a power
cord.
The cords attached to the back of the EJ-8 are some of the most useful kinds of
cables for connecting your equipment to the EJ-8. These cables are clipped to the EJ-8’s
box so they won’t get lost. If you find you frequently need another type of cable (as
when using two audio devices which require identical cables), you can easily add it to the
clip. Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the clip to add more cords.

compromise the quality of sound of the equipment it is used with; it expands the
capabilities and range or use of whatever equipment you have. The EJ-8’s straight-
