I’ve been running this setup for over a year. It works so well, that most of my friends have gone this direction also. It works great for hearing protection and increases the safety on the trail when needing to communicate with other riders on the trail. Being able to warn riders behind me that oncoming machines are heading their way is probably the most important feature this system provides. I wouldn’t ride without it. Good choice Dave!!!
Good video. We have been running The Com S4S for several months now in our Teryx and I did a full review of it over on the Teryx forums a few months ago. This is a really good system and their support is very good if one ever has questions. Really great little company. This setup has transformed our riding in the T4 and we can't imagine riding without it.
I'm in the same boat - bought the CARDO FreeCom 4+ for the Talon, dealt with BT issues, not being loud enough, ect... Like you Im now headed to a dedicated intercom setup and have the CARDO setup for sale. Make some room on the front porch to yell at the kids - Im right there with ya. These machines ( all of them ) really do get into your head at the end of the day and there's not enough advil to take care of it. Safe travels -
We are a dealer for the Rugged Radios and the headsets individually have a volume control on the headsets and don’t have to be adjusted at the head unit.
@@TheCOM The helmets don’t have individual volume control. The volume would have to be controlled by the intercom in that situation. Only the headsets have individual volume control.
Is there a way to make the behind the head headset work with some kind of helmet? I could be perfectly happy with the over the head sets but some places, like Hatfield-McCoy, make you wear helmets. I’m bringing earplugs to Hatfield when I go this time.
Do the in car comms require a push to talk button as well as the radio? Or is the in car communication automatic once the headsets are plugged in? Thanks!
You ever have any issues with car to car with static noise? When stationary works fine, but as soon as we start moving it’s so staticy we can’t understand each other, we also both have windshields
@@DerangedOffRoad we’re pretty sure it had good contact not really sure how to double check that, and not sure what that filter is, did it come in the kit?
I realize it's mostly a person preference, but what would you consider the better of the headsets? Or maybe the one with more pros? I saw on one of their videos you were asking about the cable off the drivers side shoulder on the behind the head set. That much of a pain? Great videos. Have a set in my shopping chart, will be pulling the trigger soon.
If you go with over the head headset you can have the cord on either side. I decided to switch out my behind the head ones for the over the head instead. -Garrett
Bought my COMsole. Just finished my install. Sitting in the driveway, listening to Dave as I Bluetooth from my phone. Idling in the driveway was a big noise difference. Will take a quick jaunt later to see how the trails are. Wish I could have pulled the trigger earlier to purchase through you guys.
Yes we’re still running them and they work great. Hopefully we can start selling them soon again on our website. They have had a chip shortage and put all their vendors on hold until late August we hope. You can still buy directly from them but they have a limited quantity. 👍-Garrett
Yes, we have helmet setups as well but make sure your helmet has deep pockets for the ear pieces. Otherwise they will hurt your ears all day long. I actually carved out some of my foam in the area so they fit a ton better. -Garrett
@@DerangedOffRoad It looks like our semiconductors will be here late August. We hope to have them built by early September and then we can get the dealer program back up and going. We apologize for the inconvenience this shortage has caused everyone.
Thanks for the earlier reply, Had another question, when we are out riding we typically talk to each other having a 4 way conversation. Do you need to press a button each time to communicate with someone that is not in your UTV?
Yes with the two way radio you'll use a ptt button. Honestly that's one of reasons we decided to go that way. Open mics is cool most of the time, but sometimes it's nice to only have in car conversation when you want.
@@DerangedOffRoad I think the two way also presents an added value to have in the event of a emergency where no cell service exist. Thanks for the great info!
Im looking for a com system that will let me use a Bluetooth Ear Plug with built in mic. There is a pair I like that also has noise reduction rating, like the “Elgin Ruckus Discord Bluetooth Earplug”. Does anybody know a system that will let you connect your own Bluetooth earplugs like that? This way I can slip my helmet on, vs using a full headset.
If something is going wrong with the machine and you have headphones on you can really tair up your machine. They are nice but I just feel like I need to hear how things are going. I don't even have my stereo on unless I'm hanging out with my friends.
Is there a type that has a main host car where the others don’t have to have a box on there rig I mainly am concerned about me having the system on my utv and if I’m riding with my buddies that have quads can they still connect to me without having to put a bunch of hardware on there atvs
We have a set as well. So does my buddy. We did have issues early on, owners hands on helped us get it worked out. See our unboxing. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-tva26iQSdAg.html
