Very good product!
This works great! I have a Bell Qualifier Dlx helmet and the speakers fit right in the speaker pockets. I bought the Jbl 45mm speakers, but for $80 I'm not sure they are that much better than the ones that come with the unit. The only thing I have to say is the unit when mounted on the left side of helmet,it catches wind and makes it really loud inside the helmet. Very annoying, so after moving it several times the best spot to mount it is near the back of the helmet. It made a huge difference! Radio and streaming come in loud and clear. Plenty of volume and the volume gets louder as you go faster and gets quieter when you slow down. Awesome feature!

It simply works.
It works well. The only 2 issues we’ve had with it are minor. One the buttons and timed presses are a bit cumbersome at times and two the fm radio is not worth messing with. Granted we live out in the middle of nowhere. The sound quality is fantastic. It’s easy to make phone calls with. People I have talked to say I am easy to understand. We use them in full face helmets.

Great product but watch tutorials before installing
Not the easiest to install but it’s a great product. The combination of having to take the helmet lining apart and then getting the correct placement and locking everything back in with the cords is definitely not the easiest but not impossible I would recommend watching videos before doing so. Also place the spacers it allows for better audio quality. I haven’t had an issue with battery life it lasts about 3 nice good rides. I personally love it the installation was just a little frustrating

Stop shopping and get this one. I spent 3 months analyzing every option.
Great bang for your buck. So far no downside for the price point.The install was the most difficult part as you have to plan the wiring and if you're as meticulous as I am (often mistaken as a perfectionist), things have to look right, sound amazing and feel comfortable. The hardest part is lining up the speakers appropriately to your ears if your helmet doesn't have designated cutouts. Also the speakers are thick (making amazing sound), so if there isn't a recess for them to sit in, and your ears already fold a bit putting on your helmet, this will be a painful experience. Plan accordingly. Cardboard traced to the speaker shape, a razor, and a ton of patience.The sound qualify is clear and loud, calls are crisp according to the opinion of who I call (actually clearer than using the phone as normal, so I've been told).Functionality is easy, but the button combinations to use the features take some memorization. The FM radio is a nice touch if you use the Cardo app. And if you have MP3s saved to your phone it has a "music player" feature that reads them. But I doubt that will get any use as I use a streaming service. GPS also is clearly audible as well and has a nice fade out/in when you get a call.Overall very pleased with the purchase. The only negative from a Cardo Design perspective is the way the device attaches to the plate, in comparison to others. It is a horizontal tab that click the unit in place. The release lever cannot be mistakenly hit, but if it is the unit WILL disconnect and go flying off. Other devices sit in a vertical post or slide in a tab, in a way they can "dangle there" for a second, allowing you to realize your sound interruption is due to it physically disconnecting, saving it from dropping. Again just a pet peeve of mine, as I shopped almost every other brand big and small, make and model, to eventually purchase this unit.Would definitely purchase again if lost or damaged (or flew off). And would make any rider happy if it was a gift.

Superb Clarity & Easy Installation
I absolutely loved the design and ease of use. The speakers & microphone installation was rather easy. They sync up with my phone very fast and other headsets via app. Peaople on the other end of a call have asked if I was in my office while I was riding. It doesn’t give any background noise at all. I will purchase this again for my other helmets.

Freaking amazing!
I love that Cardo offers a more affordable but still quality bluetooth headset. My wife and I tested it, and the mic still lets a little wind through, but she could perfectly understand me and the speakers sound amazing and are pretty low profile. Its super easy to install, I installed it in about 2 or 3 minutes. 10/10 would recommend

Sound could be better but the other features make up for it.
You can always upgrade the speakers with JBL ones per the website. Its a bit muffled. The features I do like is you can pair to another one to chat while you're riding. It was very helpful when riding with other riders of if you have a partner with you.

It's okay, but cuts out occasionally
This is my third Cardo intercom, and the cheapest. I suppose you get what you pay for. It works, I got it for my vespa, where i don't plan to go fast, so volume wasnt really an issue for me. The problem is that the audio cuts out occasionally for a second or two every once in a while. it always resumes promptly, but it's a bit jarring. not a big deal, but a little annoying. never had any of my other Cardo devices do this. but yeah, this works. if you want it for lower speed city riding, it's good. wouldn't recommend it for a faster, unfarred motorbike
