Quick question, does the ultra come with head sets or is it like anything else, optional extras for standard equipment.

If you've read the previous threads then you'll know that I didn't think the volume on the HD headsets was loud enough and that the mics on the J&Ms just didn't do what I wanted them to (VOX even less sensitive than on the HD originals). So I made a hybred. Used my HD mics with a set of J&M ear piece speakers (which they will see you separately). It was a little work but I've been very pleased with the results for over a year now. The J&M speakers offer MUCH better sound (both in freq response and in volume) over the OEM headsets.

My 2 cents.

I had H D headsets.When the speaker wore out I bought J&M headsets. I like the J&M microphone alot better than the HDsets.I can adjust the VOX where it works without shouting but does not pickup much road noise.
The HD speakers sound much better to me.The J&M speakers sound tinny and hollow.I told my wife they remind me of being a kid and talking with two cans and a string.
Everyone has a different sound they like.
The J&M cables do not fall out as badly as the HD cables and they are a little longer too.
