My wife and I have used these for over 2 months now. I can't speak for how they'll work for a group larger than 2, but it should be the same. We're both amazed at how great these are. We can communicate clearly with each other, even at a fairly far distance without any static or connectivity issues. They increase safety since we can communicate possible threats and we don't have to wonder what the other is doing. I use them with earplugs and I can very clearly hear her or my phone. My older Shoei helmet doesn't have speaker pockets, and no place to stick the velcro. I was able to directly stick the speaker (which already has velcro attached) directly to the fabric inside the helmet. This works fine and it's secure. Speaker placement is critical. I made a very small placement adjustment and it made a huge difference. Even without the speaker pockets, I can't feel the speakers against my ears. These have been the best wireless device I've ever used. They literally work flawlessly, and the batteries do last the specified 10 hours or so. Helmet installation took about 20 minutes per helmet, and they seem to fit almost anything. I highly recommend these. They have made riding together a completely different experience. They're expensive but worth every penny.

Have this installed in my HJC IS-MAX II. Fits like it was made for it and doesnโt look as goofy as others I have seen hanging off the side of a helmet. Those are the biggest reasons I purchased this over the bold version which I think is the same basic system. I believe this system is waterproof which is the reason I went with it over a Sena product. I have used this for a while now, well enough to develop an opinion anyway. I have the unit linked to my phone, gps and motorcycle currently. The bike is a 2020 BMW R1250RT. This allows me to hear gps prompts along with answering or placing phone calls through the navigator along with listening to the bikes audio through its Bluetooth connection. There is a certain way to pair it to make this all work and there are a few YouTube videos on it. So far calls seem clear but I have to turn the volume all the way up on my phone to hear the caller. As long as I do that (and raise my windscreen during a call) call quality is fine. So Iโm good with that part. GPS prompts come through fine also. The sound quality on music is very disappointing though. I tried putting the spacers under the speakers and they caused me to have sore ears so I took them out. The sound is ok but nothing to get excited about. You must turn the bass and treble way down on your sound system to make it sound a bit better. From everything I have read all the other Bluetooth systems are much lower quality sound than this system. I can only imagine how bad they are. My previous goldwing had a wired system that sounded 500% better than this. I guess I will be listening to the fairing speakers mostly unless I am riding in a residential area in quiet hours. Battery life seems good. All day seems to be no issue.

I have an HJC RPHA Pro 11 which this was specifically designed for so the fit is obviously flawless but Cardo has done a pretty good job making the kit pretty much universal. One thing I was really impressed with was the production value put just into the packaging. (You order one you'll know what I mean). Pros: Sleek design. Good battery life. Easy to use. Easy to install. Cons: more like down sides but not deal breakers. The non boom mic didn't work at speed on my bike. And I mean doing 10mph in the alley way people couldn't hear me. Changed it over to boom mic and no problems. You have to talk pretty loud to be heard but it works well. The other is sound quality. The 40mm JBL are sadly treble-ish. When ear buds are producing club quality bass you'd think 40mm wafers would be better. Sound quality is further diminished when ran through the cardo app. Much better to just BT connect to ur phone and use it like a wireless headset. I just use Alexa assistant and run it as a wireless and it's pretty great. Definitely worth the couple hundred bucks for some tunes in the brain bucket and voice guidance from the gps. Definitely recommend this. Especially if u have an HJC helmet.
