[QUOTE="TomInPA, post: 948518, member: 21394"] Adding to Sir Richard's post, I also took his advise to feed the sound to the helmet using an Autocom communications unit. I have Radar Detector, GPS/Phone/XM, Auxiliary stereo input, and bike to bike radio using a Motorola TK3101 GMRS radio. The system delivers sound via helmet speaker (meh) or ear monitors (wow!). Bluetooth is a great concept, and someday it will match the wired system, but not yet. It is not easy nor inexpensive to dial in any audio and communications system. If your total costs are under $800 and your are happy, you have hit the jackpot. If you can do without phone, bike-to bike and good fidelity you should be able to stay under $200. Richard, what does the XM Weather subsrciption cost? I have the music subscriptions for $85 the first year, but I thought weather was really expensive. I am using some real-time iPhone apps to get radar feeds. That fails where no internet(wifi/3G/4G) connection is available. [/QUOTE]
