Sena SMH10 Headset

[AudiA4_20T]

Hey guys, just picked up a set of these for around $300 shipped (pricey I know, but has everything I want).

Anyways, these things are awesome. Extremely easy to use and has bluetooth connectivity for phones, MP3 devices, and other headsets. I'll update more when I get everything installed but I just did a quick connect with my phone and was able to control my Iphone music flawlessly INCLUDING Pandora.

It would be interesting to know how your works at highway speeds.

I found this review that was generally very positive.

Summary
Wow!
Introduction
While I could debate whether this is a "Gen 3" or "Gen 4" motorcycle communications system, I cannot and will not argue that the Sena SMH10 Motorcycle Bluetooth Headset and Intercom system (review) is THE real thing.
So with most of the essential good stuff covered very well under Part One but without letting any of it bias me…it is time to let you know how the Sena systems perform in the field so to speak.

here is a similar ebay but much cheaper device (about 1/3)

I found this rating

--------------------------------------
| Power class | Maximum Power Output |
|-------------|----------------------|
| | |
| 1 | 100mW (20dBm) |
| | |
| 2 | 2.5mW (4dBm) |
| | |
| 3 | 1 mW (0dBm) |

So I wonder if the SMH10 is really that much better at audio quality at freeway speeds. This is probably more a function of ear piece, helmet and noise cancellation (if available)

<LI class=style23>

<LI class=style23>High Impact balancing Microphone for inter-city speed condition<LI class=style23>Comply with standard of Bluetooth V2.0 <LI class=style23>Support Headset profile, Hands-free, A2DP profile. <LI class=style23>Class 2 Type Output Power <LI class=style23>10-meters(33ft) Bluetooth sensing range <LI class=style23>500 meters(1640ft) intercom <LI class=style23>

This cheapy version has some other type of wireless for the intercome and uses a low Class 2 blue tooth for pairing.
It seems the SMH10 is a single blue tooth radio for both the pairing and the intercom as it is a Class 1 100mW device

The Sena SMH10 is a Bluetooth v2.1 Class 1 Stereo Headset with long-range Bluetooth Intercom designed specifically for motorcycles.

I ordered one from here; Texas is close to CA and no State Sales tax

Yep, I've searched for just about every headset and by the far this one seems the best. Can't ride for a week since I got ear surgery so I'm impatiently waiting to test these suckers out. Already tried syncing it with my phone and I think I'm pleased enough with the fact that I can play/pause/next track/volume with this unit, and that's before I even talk to anyone else!
