      Sony Linkbuds S are in my opinion the best option. I just picked up a pair and they are awesome. They have ANC that works pretty well and they are small enough to fit in my ears inside the helmet without being uncomfortable. I tried the Sony XM4 and the ANC was a little better but the headphones were too big to fit comfortably in the helmet. ANC (active noise canceling) helps reduce road and bike noise.

    Holy shit, the amount of riding snobs in this comment section. Yeah, some of us like to listen to music while we ride. It makes the experience more enjoyable for us. Also some of us ride for hours on end every single day, and it gets boring. Music becomes a background noise, but something that's more enjoyable than constant wind noise. It's not that distracting, so chill out.
    Either way though, at least we're all riding. Stay safe guys.

      Thank you! Well said. Too many know it alls in the comment section that the only research they’ve ever done is their personal opinion. Gold Wing riders have been using helmet mounted speakers for decades and I haven’t seen any undue Goldwing accidents due to it. Any product on the market is as safe as you use....or abuse it. One could drive their sports car down the Blvd way over the speed limit windows up and blasting their audio system full volume. That would be an example of abuse.

      Haha spoken like a true rider mate! Personally, I waited until I had a few months practice before listening to music but you're right, it's not distracting in the slightest when listening to music. I use earplugs (to mitigate environmental noise) & Bluetooth helmet speakers and I feel no compromise in regards to safety (can still hear sirens and horns fine, those sounds actually stand out a lot more).

    I'm sixty years old, was an aircraft mechanic for 33 years, and have less than mediocre hearing. So I use Bose Noise Canceling ear buds, a FiiO A3 headphone amplifier, and my android phone. When traveling on my FJR1300a. With a mini sd card, in my Galaxy phone, as well as Pandora, Spotify, Tunein Radio, and Audible(to listen to books, on a long trip), it's a great setup for solo riding. More than enough volume for me. The Bose buds cancel out about 75% of wind and road noise. Music sound quality is excellent. NOTE ; However, you also won't hear emergency vehicles. Although I don't hear them now, when I'm in my car, and have the radio on. These ear buds are almost $300, but the sound quality is Bose quality. They're rechargeable, and using a full face helmet, you'll get at least eight hours of riding time on a charge. Probably quite a bit more for you young guys, because you won't use as much volume as I do. The FiiO A3 amp, will go about 16 hours on a charge. This setup cost me less than $400.

    I don't even need speakers/earbuds (already have a sena), but I came to watch anyway because your videos are always informative af. Subscribed. Also, it's advisable to wear earplugs with speakers. It helps remove the tinnyness from them (my sena sounds better with earplugs in), and you prevent hearing damage over time.

So far the Bose Quietcomfort 20 w active noise cancellation has no match and worth a try. It Cancel out all wind noise so you don’t need to keep sound loud to hear well. Works great on planes etc too to remove background noise. A bit pricey though

    Problem is, earbuds in both ears is illegal in most states here in the US. Will you get caught? Ehh...Maybe? If you get pulled over, probably. But, still illegal.
    I just have a Sena system, turn the volume to max, then pop in regular reusable earplugs (like what you'd use at a construction site). Drops the wind noise almost altogether and then also drops the music down to the PERFECT volume. And, strangely, it doesn't ruin the sound quality, either.

    Used Shure se215s for about 18 months before pulling the trigger on sena 20s.
    Shure buds PROS: 1.price. 2. Sound quality + noise isolation. As long as the bud didn't become unseated while donning my helmet, it gave the best riding + music experience. 3. No charging/simplicity.
    CONS: 1. Comfort only lasts for approx 45 minutes. After that, usually one, occasionally both, of my ears would begin aching like crazy inside of the tragus. I assume caused by prolonged slight pressure against it. After about 60-75 minutes it becomes unbearable and I have to remove helmet and buds and either take a break for 20-30 minutes or just go ear-plugs-only till the next stop. Add to that, the drawbacks of cords, buds becoming unseated from cord pulls... it just wasn't worth it anymore.
    Sena 20s PROS: 1.Comfort. Which is MOST important while riding for me. When installed properly, you don't feel the speakers touching (helmet dependent). 2. Convenience. Turn it on, connects to your phone, put helmet on, hit the voice command button, say 'play music'. Done. 3. Intercom + other features. Talking to pillion on command is very cool. Also phone calls where the other party can't tell i'm on the bike! Impressive. 4. Ambient sound mode. Outer mic picks up ambient sound and amplifies it into speakers so you can have a conversation without removing helmet. Enabled and disabled by a double tap of button. Easy. 5. No touchscreen. Anything I need to do can be done with physical buttons on the sena unit. Next/prev song, volume, enable intercom, ambient mode, voice command prompt.
    CONS: 1. Sound quality. So many people said how good these things sound. 20s sounds decent at best. I was right to be skeptical. I ride with earplugs so I don't expect loud, clear, perfect audio. I didn't understand how they wouldn't sound like headphones when you pull them away from your ears... well that's how they sound. But I keep the volume as low as I can (which is not very) while still being able to hear the music over any wind/engine noise. It's definitely 'background music' as opposed to immersive with the shure se215s. 2. Better be charged when you want to use it. Battery lasts all day as long as you remembered to charge the night before. Not a big deal. 3. Voice commands, app, user interface not quite there. If i'm riding I have to YELL 'PLAY MUSIC' in an overly annunciated way for it to work. Which is odd because I have perfect phone conversations in my normal speaking voice. I've only opened the app like twice. Clunky layout.
    Bottom line: under 30 minutes I use shure earbuds. Over 30 minutes I go with the Sena + no-noise plugs. I want a setup like the sena that utilizes over-ear headphone style speakers in the helmet. Would probably have to be a collaboration with the helmet manufacturer, but seems like it's possible. If you can do drop down sun visors, you can do retractable ear cups....

    I followed his advice and got the M6-Pro. I spent nearly $500 on a Momentum INC noise-reduction helmet (great for phone, crap for music) and for a year now I had been looking at the $1000 NR earbuds but I couldn't afford to pull that trigger. Listen to this guy, OMG he pairs the M6-Pro with foam inserts. BOOM! I finally have tunes in my ears at hiway speeds! Excellent advice, excellent perspective. thanks, thanks.

    Thanks for the solid review, I'm on my 2nd pair of M6 Pro ear buds, both pair are still working I just like redundancies, and they are so far the best ear buds I've ridden with. You can battle the road noise better with a good solid fit than just cranking the volume to compensate for road/wind noise. Thanks for your reviews, you do a hell of a job.

    Took your advice with the M6 earbuds, Hands down the worst earbuds I've ever used with a helmet, takes 5 attempts taking helmet on and off as the hardened memory cord either gets pinned behind your causing massive discomfort or it catches on your helmet liner and rips out of your ear, same with removing helmet. they rotate and force you to slide helmet off with earbuds pinned against the side of your head. Multiple helmet brands tested all with same results.

    • @gr0gers

      I think you're wearing the earbuds wrong if this happened that many times. I put the earbuds in with memory foam tips, straight out of the box, and slid my snugly-fit helmet over with zero problems, discomfort or displacement of cords/buds. Perfect fit first time. Your comment made me skeptical at first, glad I didn't listen. Best $50 I've spent in a long time.

    Awesome video with quite a bit of knowledge. I recently purchased a set of the M6 Pros (2nd Gen) and let me tell you: these headphones are perfect for riding. I tested the quality with an open-face helmet + goggles and the noise isolation worked surprisingly well. I originally rode with a pair of Bose SoundSport headphones (open concept). They do let in quite a bit of sound, so the M6 Pros (2nd Gen) are quite a step up.
    Well done with the product review. The M6 Pros are an excellent choice for riding. Props.

    Great recommendation on the MEE M6,
    Bought a pair from amazon for £20, and it may have just saved my hearing long term, the wind noise from my helmet was immense at 60-70mph (100-120kph), now, barely a whisper, but horns and sirens and other need to know noises cut through

  • @dh2392
    @dh2392 6 років тому

    I've tried in helmet speakers and it confirmed what I already suspected. You either have to crank the volume to hear above the wind noise, or wear earplugs to shut out the wind noise, and crank the volume to hear above the earplugs. I've used the M6 Pro's and Shure SE215's, but I prefer the cheap AKG Y23 earphones. They're tiny, do not dislodge putting on a helmet as I found the others to do, and seal out the wind noise pretty well, especially if you get the matching Comply foam tips.

I will never be a fan of Bluetooth audio - you can't help but lose audio fidelity, and faffing around with chargers ain't my idea of convenience. The Shures have got those memory foam ear buds with the metal cable that wraps around behind your ears and I've ridden for hours and hours on end in total comfort and audiophile bliss- plus the sound cancelling is so good I can quite happily put my music volume down to its very lowest setting and still hear it clearly over what wind noise does make it through - it's a definite recommendation from me

    Own the m6 ear buds (IEM) for playing in a rock band. Used while riding to listen to music. They're amazing. They're made to cancel outside sounds (the band, or the wind) so that you can hear your insturment or mix better. Or your tunes/phone calls while on the road 🤘
