Has anyone been able to condition an 8 ohm speaker output into Music on Hold. Terribly distorted when plugged directly into audio port. Thankx for any help!

Couple of responses:
1. Use an isolation transformer such as Bogen WMT1 - this will likely fix the trouble
2. Be VERY careful that you don't overpower the MOH port.
3. Remember that if the source is used for something else, and someone changes the volume, it will mess with your MOH volume. We always prefer a line level or dedicated source.
