onesea Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 I use Spotify and can double click and single click front button to change songs. Fwd & backwards. To change playlist I use Google. Bottom button if I recall. Downside of pack talk is there are various death grips you need to learn to use the functions. Or try the voice control, although in intercom mode it can get confused with your talking and do random things. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I managed to get to grips with a couple of "hey Cardo" commands, including speed dial, it's just if I stop music, I can't start it again. I'm just whinging about little things of course.

Mississippi Bullfrog Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 I have tinnitus so always wear earplugs. What sort of system would work that would enable me to hear satnav directions but also block out wind noise? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No issues. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wear earplugs and can hear my wife nagging talking at silly speeds with my cardo packtalk bold Apparently the cardo edge is 30% louder too! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Davey Posted March 28 Author Share Posted March 28 (edited) I have the Cardo Edge, and have screaming tinnitus. I connect the Cardo to the satnav, then my phone to the satnav, all works very nicely, with, or without earplugs. I usually get halfway down the road and realise that I forgot to put them in. Music and calls via the satnav, through the Cardo is superbly clear, even with ear plugs. Edited March 28 by Simon Davey 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mississippi Bullfrog Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 I popped into J&S and bought a Cardo Spirit HD. It seems to work fine with my usual Eggz earplugs. The guy fitted it to my lid whilst I was there which was handy. I really only need to hear satnav directions. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thunderb0lt Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 (edited) I use an Interphone system, very happy with it. I always wear ear-plugs so have no idea what the system is like without them. When I say ear-plugs, I actually use 'Boots Soft Silicone Earplugs'. They are perfect for me, easy to mould for a tailored-fit.

asharin Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 The girlfriend and I use a freedcon system, el cheapo from the likes of amazon or ali express. Works really well, and when I'm on my own I just use it as a bluetooth headset for phone calls, listening to music etc 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Took me back to overnighting at truck stops that did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Took me back to overnighting at truck stops that did. Never used them for their designed use, ie, sleeping . On the bike they don't block sound out completely. They definitely dampen helmet noise significantly but I still hear what I should hear when riding and the intercom is clear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I got the new bike. I said I shouldn't but other me said go for it. So I did. 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
