As an aside, I'm using earbuds with my Sena, its much beter than speakers, which can be uncomfortable.

Unless the helmet is built for speakers - my Nolan certainly is and you wouldn't know they were there.

My Shoei neotec has wells specifically for speakers and I've added an extra pair temporarily for the CB.

I have the Sena SMH10, which I run with my Samsung Galaxy Note 3, does everything I need to do with it, with 12 hours battery life thrown in.

with my work I need to be available a lot of the time, so I use the phone feature quite a bit, but I also use the music & GPS when I need to as well.

it works great rider to pillion, or rider to rider, Shiney & I have done 2 National rallys inside each others heads, and it worked perfectly, in fact I am sure shiney can still here me talking.....and talking.....and talking....

Streak has nailed it :thumb
I have the same setup as him and as he said it is an awesome bit of kit.

Highly recommended :thumbs

I should have added that I would only use a comms system that allows for the use of earbuds rather than speakers.  30 plus years of riding bikes without ear buds, along with various live music events, mean I have to protect the hearing I have or at least make sure it gets no worse. Plus you can hear things a lot clearer and better quality at lower volume.

that allows for the use of earbuds rather than speakers. 

Of all the various phone/mp3 player type earbuds that I have tried over the years I have yet to find a pair that will stay in my ear........even worse in a helmet, at least one will fall out as I put the helmet on.

Got a 20s and SR10 from Dale late last year and really happy with it.  Fantastic service from Dale and plenty of helpful info about setting it up. Recommend a chat with him if looking for comms gear.      :thumbs :thumbs
