Default Poor Audio Quality, FlightCom 403 Stereo Intercom

FYI: I am helping a 210 owner install a FlightCom 403 stereo

Sweeping the audio response from the entertainment input to the stereo
headphone output in an unmodifed unit shows that the low frequency
response is down -3db at 300Hz, and -55db at 20Hz. That is what makes
music sound like it is being pushed through a taught string! I sent an
email to FlightCom to suggest that they need to hire me as a consultant
to fix their design...

In summary, the unit as it comes from FlightCom is unacceptable for
music quality. Even though you could fix it, how many of you are
willing to go through the hassle. In its present state, I can't
recommend it to anybody...


Thanks for that writeup Mike, I am shopping for a new intercom (for my
210 no less) and will avoid that one!
