Sound from Eumig Mark S802

[alfredsvideo]

Is there anyone who can tell me how to get sound, electronically, from my Eumig S 802. We have lots of family archive footage, but unfortunately the sound is almost drowned out by the noise of the projector itself. Thanks, Alf.

As far as I know, this projector has an amplified audio out socket. On most Eumig projectors this is a 2-pin DIN outlet at the back of the projector beneath the loud speaker to the left. Are you using this outlet? Try this one first and see if this helps with the audio. Try to even connect the audio out from the 2-pin DIN to a stereo equalizer and see if it helps.
I say that because noise from these projectors can be caused by manu factors, so see if this audio line out is OK. For your info, there are places that sell 2-pin DIN to RCA plug adapters if your audio system does not support the 2-pin DIN connection.

The 2-pin DIN socket on the rear of the projector is for an External loudspeaker of about 8 ohms impedance. This enables you to place a loudspeaker near the listeners to improve their hearing. That is the ideal use of this socket.
Otherwise, as suggested by Lunar07, you can connect this to an external amplifier. The S802 is unusual in the 800 series of machines in that it does not have a dedicated socket for this kind of use.
The best solution is to use an external speaker near the viewers and screen them from the projector noise by some kind of acoustic barrier.

In addition to what you say, Eumig made a speaker with 2-pin socket to connect to such projectors.
There is one on eBay, the Eumig LS-800:

These can be found for cheaper. I have two of those.
I just want to impress on the original poster that this MAY solve the problem. Because behind the noise and hum there may be other underlying issues. These may be connected to capacitors, amp, some transistor. Hopefully the 8-ohm impedance external loudspeaker, as granger mentions and thanks for mentioning the impedance, such as the LS-800 or any other speaker will solve the issue when it is placed close to the crowd with the pop corn
