I ordered the Cardo Packtalk duo from Revzilla. 15% off right now. Wont be here until Monday.

 

Scala cardo newest ones are by far the best. They are not the junk SENA offers. They have a few different options so do your home work. Larger and better speakers now. One model now uses voice activation rather than VOX . I had Cadro and replace a very old set with SENA S20 big mistake.

 

I have used the SENA system for years and very happy with it. Mine is an older model so I would assume the newer units are awesome. I've never needed to pair to a GPS or thought to try it with I phone navigation though. I just look at the TomTom I have for trips. I use it for music off my iPhone on my Road King.and nice to have in case I get a call. ( I'm on call for work 24/7 so don't give me crap having a phone on a ride, I don't have a choice )

Unless you need to take a call, have you considered upgrading your sound system with either a new head unit with Bluetooth or adding Bluetooth to yours. I recently did this and am very happy with it. Automatically syncs to my iPhone for tunes and is much louder and clearer than the stock head unit. Also added an amp and upgraded the speakers. I keep my phone on vibrate in my pocket and just pull over when I get a call and then call them back.

I had a friend that had a wife that was a ****** She couldn't stand silence. I loved to tease him when we were out riding that he needed to get headsets so his wife could talk to him. Fastest you have ever heard a loud "HELL NO!" The communication part on the Bluetooth headsets are that great but unless they have changed, you have to switch back and forth between voice and tunes. My wife quit wearing her headset a long time ago and just taps me on the shoulder and motions to turn the radio down so I can hear her if she feels the need to say something. Most of the time she's motioning for me to turn it up.

edit - for some reason the forum doesn't like the word ( talk er) It put asterisks there and wont let me correct it.

 

SEAN is not water resistant at all. Sound is ok at best. Buggy with VOX and other devices. Try a A Scala cardo even my old ones are better than new SENA except the old ones like all of that time only had 4 hours battery life.

 

I have been very happy with my SENA 20S setup.

 

 

Great pick!

 

Check out the UCLEAR AMP series. If you do a search you will find that they have been rated as the best sound out there. They will do everything you are asking about. The AMP series has models that pair to 2 bikes up to 10 bikes and are priced accordingly. None of the options out there are cheap though. This is the best headset review that I have been able to find.

Good luck.

 

I've had the first generation Uclear units (HBC Series) for a few years, they work great for audio and calls while riding. another cool feature on the Amp Pro series is the multi-hop, when a bunch are connected they use each paired unit as a repeater, extending the range significantly.
