  • Expandable Four-Channel Architecture Supports Multi-Room Or Multi-Language Deployments
  • Dual RJ-45 Power Outputs Eliminate External Supply Requirements For Radiator Installations
  • Balanced XLR Combo Input With Switchable Phantom Power Accepts Mixer And Microphone Sources Directly
  • Four Selectable RF Carrier Frequencies Enable Interference-Free Operation In Adjacent Spaces
  • Front-Panel LCD And Multi-Segment Metering Confirm Audio Levels And Carrier Status During Setup
  • Integrated Compression And Contour Processing Optimize Speech Intelligibility Without External Equipment
  • Half-Rack Width Allows Dual-Unit Mounting In Single Rack Space For Compact Equipment Rooms

The LT-82 ListenIR transmitter serves as the foundation for professional infrared assistive listening installations in theaters, houses of worship, conference centers, and interpretation environments. Operating in mono or stereo modes, it supports expandable multi-channel configurations by linking up to four units for simultaneous language or program distribution. Each transmitter powers and communicates with LA-140 radiator units through standard CAT-5 infrastructure, simplifying installation while maintaining RF isolation from wireless microphone systems.

Balanced XLR/combo and unbalanced phono inputs accommodate mixer feeds, microphones with phantom power, and consumer sources. Built-in compression, contour filtering, and adjustable input sensitivity optimize speech intelligibility and music reproduction across varied program material. Front-panel LCD monitoring and 10-segment metering provide real-time confirmation of audio levels and RF carrier status during setup and operation.

Half-rack form factor enables single or dual-unit rack mounting for fixed installations. Automatic carrier shutoff after 30 minutes of silence extends radiator lifespan in facilities with intermittent use. Four selectable carrier frequencies prevent crosstalk in adjacent spaces or multi-room deployments, making the LT-82 suitable for both single-venue and campus-wide assistive listening architectures.
