I've been happy with my Midlands. Got a set for me and my sweetie's helmets.

They sync to each other and to my phone. So I get calls and use the phone for
rocking to tunes. Sound p2p is excellent, like you're standing in a room.

Will say the range isn't the greatest, if I get more than 10-12 feet from other unit
or phone it drops the connection. Otherwise very happy.

Me and my guy friend use Sena SMH10. I love it. The music sound is very good too. Music sounds like it wraps the whole head

I use just a regular bluetooth thats small enough to fit in my helmet. I have the Blueant Q2. It works great for music and conversations.

I have a Scala Rider Teamset Pro. Mainly bought it for when my wife is a passenger but it comes in handy for calls when I'm out riding. People claim they cannot tell that I'm on a motorcycle riding down the highway. Has either manual or hands-free operation to make or receive calls.

My wife and I use the Cardo Scala II. Its the team set for bike to bike communication. As long as we stay within 500' we can talk bike to bike. We've had them for 2 or 3 years now and love them.

I just use a cheap pair of ebay chinese bluetooth heaedphones. Call quality isn't the best, but I barely like talking on the phone at all, let alone while riding.

Just bought a sena Smh10, havnt had a lot of riding time to right a detailed review yet, but so far it's perfect for me. Music and gps through Bluetooth and I can talk on the phone and passenger/ other riders ( up to 4) Revzilla had the best price I could find (160$ shipped) makes riding long distances much more enjoyable being able to answer phone calls and relax to music. Just make sure you don't turn it up so loud that you can't hear your surroundings and bike. I would definately recommend this unit!

I have a Sena also have had mine for about a year I love it software updates and so many features music is clear and so is the incoming calls all with 2 buttons.

Pandora and radio apps work great have not tried it with other users yet but sure that would be no problem.

One thing I like is the price and that the extra headsets are cheap also so if you have a few helmets you can switch between them easy enough.

Range from the phone I have it hooked to is about 30 ft
