Headsets
Stereo over-the-head headsets, helmet headsets and behind the head headsets are all available
and connect directly to the back of the intercom via a TRRS 3.5 mm headset connection.
Extension cords can be placed between the intercom and the headset to increase the separation
distance between passenger and COM. Make sure the extension cord is at high quality 3.5mm
least 22 gauge individual wires to prevent damage to your COM by increased resistance and heat
from smaller gauge wires.
Installing Helmet Headsets
Speakers – Carefully fit the speakers inside the helmet so that they align exactly with your ear
canal. The Velcro should stick to the helmet lining or if not, you can glue or stitch the Velcro
loop fabric in place. (See helmet headset install video @

All headsets IMPORTANT – The white clip should be fastened to the side of the helmet to
alleviate strain on the cables. If not used, premature failure of the headset may occur.
Mic Placement
Microphone (Practice headsets & boom mics) – Practice headset and boom mics should be
adjusted so that the mic is in line with your lips and no more than half an inch from your lips for
the greatest audio performance. Note the further the mic is from your lips the more distant your
voice will be and the less amplified it will be to the co-drivers.
