Hi,
having the Baer (Driver/Socius communication, the one you build in your
bike) for two years now, I may add something to maybe "help" you on a
desision, which ic to buy:
- most IC have earplugs. the Baer has real speakers. Building this speakers
in a helmet can be a hard work with lot of swearing. On the other side:
nothing sticks into your ears and irritates you. you can also use this
"bank robber mask's" without probs. If you pull the cable, your ears won't
get long :-)))
- if you want to use the ic quite all the time, check out, if it is
equipped with automatic volume control and automatic shut down, when nobody
speaking. If you ever experienced those features, you will know why !
- mechanical quality: my baer had no braekdown/quality loose during the two
years. I don't have a garage, so it has to stand sun/rain/snow all time
during the season.
- connectors: some of the ic's have realy bad connectors between headset
and unit... the 5 pin "dioden stecker" of the baer are excellent.
Conclusion: I can recommend the Baer for those guys, who: are willing to
buy some (a lot ?) money for good quality; drive a lot with socia/us, but
only have _one_ socius/a.
have a nice ride, martin
