Bought a set of Duo paired headsets as they seemed to be the best around, and the most expensive unfortunately, but I'm not that impressed with them. All the hype seems they would be ideal, and if they worked like they do in the promo vids I'd be over the moon, but they don't.
TBF the intercom is good, but could also be a bit louder, and I haven't tried pairing it with up to 15 bikes!, but from a rider and pillion point of view I've used mine on a couple of 3 hour trips now, and during that time I've been very frustrated with their inability to recognise my voice of connect to siri - like they do in the adds. It's a bit hit and miss some of the time for my wife, and most of the time for me, and I don't have a hard accent to follow, even though I'm Scottish, it's pretty clear after living in England for the past 30 years.
They have unpaired each time we stopped for lunch and tried to drive off again, the music in mine fades in and out, and sometimes the wife's commands turn on my music or turn it off? No idea what is gong on there, probably something we have set up wrong - but that is also the problem. I've had to go to the web site and set up an account and update them and set some of the preferences, I've also had to download an app which give other features, and the instructions are crap - you then have to download a 31 page pdf from the net with the full instructions - and as there are only 4 buttons you do combinations on them with various flashing lights to enter and activate different menus and functions - totally impossible while driving, and there is no way you can remember this shit.
So overall I'm not impressed, especially as I bought them to use the VOX function as it was supposed to do away with all the button pressing - but for me at least it simply does not work.
I'll be looking to get a refund and buy something simpler and more basic - this is just technology gone wrong.
