WIZ External Speaker Wizard

The Wiz is an effective 2-way radio voice-activated left front speaker switch and left front stereo output mute device that allows seamless and fully automatic interaction between the vehicle stereo and a scanner or other radio receiving device equipped with a mono 1/8” (3.5mm) speaker output jack such as on a GPS, CB, FRS, GMRS, VHF, UHF, Ham Radio or Radar Detector.

The Size is about the dimensions of a deck of playing cards 3”x2”x 0.9” in an encapsulated enclosure with a 90 degree mono 3.5mm plug on a 12 foot cord. The best placement of theWIZ is between the stereo and speaker and is mounted under or behind the dash out of sight.

How it works:  When voice is present (volume, set at a pleasant listening level) on a 2 way-radio, the left front stereo output will automatically mute and the left front speaker will switch to 2 way radio voice thus acting as a high-quality external speaker. All other speakers remain unchanged playing and connected to the stereo. The left front speaker remains switched for 3 seconds after the last voice message is received, then returns back automatically to normal stereo play.

The List Price of $39.95 is cost effective and about the same price as a good quality external mount speaker box, but without the concern of size, mount location and sound quality. Factory vehicle speakers are designed for the acoustics of the vehicle and are usually rated at 20 watts or greater making a world of difference as to how well you hear.
