    So had the Scala Cardo system on my helmet which is a Neotech, after buying my Dainese jacket with these on the shoulders
    [​IMG]
    Five minutes down the rode looking over my left shoulder, the armor ripped it off my helmet, scratched it as well--- lucky I needed a size smaller jacket so touched it up with a sharpie and returned it with no problem.
    Just found these at Target $40 that are Bluetooth compatible and once inserted into ears hangs on the back of your next below the helmet. Charged with computer last up to 12 hrs, volume is awesome and they come with three different size rubber covers for the perfect fit.
    Just a FYI

    Mr. Quackers,
    Do they get moved out of position by your helmet? I have the SkullCandy earbuds as you know and they do somewhat, but what's really annoying is when the cord gets turned by something and then it all needs readjusted.

    No not at all, they fit perfect a lot better then the skulls and even when taking off my helmet there still in place--- also on the left side cord you can forward or reverse music.
    Nice and loud plus blocks wind just enough.
    Returned the skulls and got these--- Bluetooth very convenient.
    Trust me on this, you'll love um

    Sux about the Scala and jacket. :/

    I'm intrigued with your share. The different sized ends could be helpful. My ears are so tiny and even ear plugs cut in half hurt my ears with helmet on. My outside ear cartilage is painful to touch from having a foreign object lodged in them. Helmet is XS with room so it's not the helmet that's too tight.

    Does the helmet squish these uncomfortably into the ears? Or do these sit pretty flush in your ears?

    If anything, I've been looking for Bluetooth ear buds for the gym. May just pick some up at the Tarjay to try out anyway.

    AM I have a modular neotec and pull apart just a tad when pulling over my fat head. They do go in flush and I to use the smaller rubber covers----
    The great thing with target is save packaging and if they don't fit your needs
    you can return them.
    But I bet they'll work just fine.
    Let me know

    Oh for my measurement on the nads and Herman warmer, look up Mr Ed

    Out of curiosity, were you using the stick on mount for your Scala? Or did you use the clamp mount? The reason I ask, is that with the clamp mount, the Scala sits more flush with the bottom of the helmet, versus the stick on, which drops it bit more below the bottom of the helmet. Using the clamp mount, if possible, might be a better way to go and still allow you to use the Scala for communication with other comm wearers.

    Awesome! Thank you for the info on both issues.

    Hold your horse's ****!!

    The amount of materials needed for your tenders warmer may be more costly than even a set of those ear buds.

    I may have to charge you double and have you advertise for free. Think we can get a spot during Mr. Ed reruns?...if its even still on...loved that show!

    If the clamp mount is the one we installed together with the 3m tape--- that's the one.

    Nope, the clamp one has a metal tab that clamps the mount to the helmet. The metal tab has to sit between the shell and the padding. Some helmets have padding that prevents this from working. It works on my GT-Air so you might be able to use the clamp with your Neo-tech. If you don't have the clamp mount, I think you can get them from Cardo. I don't remember what the guy gave you as far as accessories and mounts.

    You must like John Fogerty and Credence too?

    Every time there was a concert, the sound company always used the Doobie Bros. for checking out the system.

    How far back do go? Music has always been a big part of life, can't sing, can't play anything but I've built some really LOUD systems! Built nightclubs from Hawaii to Bermuda. Owned and managed a few retail audio shops. Remember laying on sound floor listening to Magic Carpet Ride after hours. Nothing, I mean nothing beats the sound of a Hammond B3 organ!!

    Wow...I love all music. From the 20s era music listening with my Gramps in his car while I inhaled his glorious cigar smoke...I love it all.
    This was his favorite Christmas song...we'd swing to it. Love me some Prima

    Enjoy some raging Beethoven on a good Bose system I used to have. Classics. Love foreign music too.

    I can read music and play instruments, but my singing belongs in a bar or shower.

    You are a guy after this girl's ears! Loud, powerful, and feeling the sound in my body is what I love.

    Cool you have that experience!!
    Do you still build sound systems?
