I have the bell star helmet and it has the place for speakers. I have been looking around and can't really find anything with reviews. So what should I get? I have the iPhone 4 and would also like to beable to make calls/hear if some one is trying to get in touch with me. (not my main concern, I want the best sounding speakers but being able to hear if some one is trying to call me would be pretty sick to)So I'm open to opinions??
Thanks, kirt
 
I have the whistler bt3300 a bluetooth headset, it itself isn't worth a crap but I got it on sale last year and at least I can bluetooth music and receive phone calls.
I plan on saving up for a better system, something with a little clearer and cleaner sound.
I would suggest something along these lines I did the whole headphones thing, then helmet speakers, and the wireless is the only one that is really comfortable.
Just my 2 cents!
 
So what wireless ones are good and do they work on iPhones because I no alot of stuff is not compatible?and all the ones i find have zero reviews. And I'm willing to spend money as long as i have some people backing up the product. Thanks for the response.
 
Most now days are compatible with the Iphone if it has bluetooth it will work with your Iphone after all mines only a 3G and works just fine. Right now there are chatterbox XBi wireless starting out at $50 plus shipping chatterbox are awesome and the prices have finally started to go down, this will for sure be my next purchase.
 
So I was looking at the chatter box xbi2 and most of the reviews are kinda bad, saying to just get this device for communication only saying that the sound quality for music sucks. And that it's not even that clear doing that. And at almost 200 bucks I would exspect them to sound good..? Does anyone have this unit personally if so how does it actually sound over the crazy roar of our bikes? And does anyone else have any opinions I'm trying to accessorize my helmet lol. I kinda want the best kit I can buy.
 
Cardo G4 has a built in radio, will do wireless a2dp stereo bluetooth, and you can talk to your buddies that have other cardos. The best part is with your iphones voice command, you can hit one button on your cardo and tell it to call someone or play some music. You can put your phone in your pocket and forget about it.
 
This is what I am running in my Bell. ebay has them for $50 shipped. Not a phone capable setup, but it would beep like any other set of head phones on an Iphone.

+1 on the scala g4. although i need to set my phone up for the mp3 player i do use the fm for right now and although changing the station is a little pain depending what gloves you have on and the reception could be a bit better on the lower stations, the phone part is incredible. got a couple incoming calls while on it and they had no idea that i was on the cyclone with a supertrapp on it. although the trapp isn't set up to be really loud, it still has a good sound to it but they couldn't tell at all. the speakers are way better than the h-d set up for the ultra classic. got mine for about 150 under suggested retail.
