You can still use the Snom PA1 I would think. Just reduce the PA1's output levels to line level for input into the Valcoms and use a regular 24VDC power supply to send power. The wires can be terminated directly into each: https://www.amazon.com/Russound-ADP-1-2-Speaker-level-Line-level-Adapter/dp/... <https://www.amazon.com/Russound-ADP-1-2-Speaker-level-Line-level-Adapter/dp/...> https://www.amazon.com/NEWSTYLE-Universal-Regulated-Switching-Computer/dp/B0... <https://www.amazon.com/NEWSTYLE-Universal-Regulated-Switching-Computer/dp/B0...> Pete

Hey guys,
https://www.valcom.com/pdf/v1030c_v1036c.pdf <https://www.valcom.com/pdf/v1030c_v1036c.pdf>
We're trying to find the best way to interface 3 old Valcom speakers V-1030c to an IP paging system.
I have a Snom PA1 but that won't work as we initially thought because speakers need 4 wires on a 24v power system. So 2 wires are for 24v power, and the other 2 are for audio. The snom only has a positive and negative output that feeds passive speakers, not active speakers like these.
What is the best way to utilize these 3 speakers or should we just replace the speakers? We're trying to keep budget to a minimum for them so we would prefer to utilize the same speakers but what's the best way to power them and feed them audio using the existing 2-pair RJ11 cable they use?
Thank you
