Sounds for my lid

[Deleted account 220427002]

I'm looking for the best way of putting sound into my helmet. I would like to be able to have my phone, a bike to bike com. and music if poss.
What is the best for quality of sound?
I would prefer not to use in-ear headphones as they don't fit my ears very well.
I have a shoei syncrotec and would like to fit the best speakers and mic I can.
My phone has bluetooth, and I’ve seen bluetooth helmets but I love the comfort of my shoei unless there is a bluetooth kit I can retro fit into it.
At the end of the day I firstly want my phone to be connected. Everything else would be nice but secondary.
please give me some of your wisdom!!!!!

In that case it just has to be Autocom IMHO nothing else even comes close.

I use Autocom and have had one of their systems for the last 9 years. It performs well and I would recomend without hesitation.

I have got round the speaker 'problem' by using Sony in ear speakers.......

I had the same problem though that they didn't fit to well...........so, I have made up these Silicone Ear Plugs with the Sonys moulded into the Silicone.....Perfect for me!! (see photo)

There is however a New Kid on the Block here.... http://www.starcom1.com/

I've not seen their kit yet but I have read some good reports and they are apparently cheaper.......?

I'm with you with in ear headphones not being good, but I had some custom earplugs made with built in speekers and have to say that they are absolutely perfect when connected up to the Autocom. Okay, they're not cheep but they're worth it IMO.

made up these Silicone Ear Plugs

Coolcarbon please tell where you get the stuff and how you made up these Silicone Ear Plugs they may be part of a solution if I can't get good speakers.
I'll still need a mike if I want to use my phone.
Part of my plan is to make things easy that’s why I would like speakers and mike permanently in my helmet with some easy to use connection that plugs in and is hidden on my helmet.
Anyone that has any links that would help or give me ideas please post away.

Try a search for "Autocomm" on here, but be prepared for some serious reading, you could be some time

If you want to talk it's got to be Autocomm.
