I've never used them. I've got enough voices in my head already

I use a cardo packtalk and on Bluetooth it's okay but my friends have just bought the packtalk Edge so next time we get out we will try the mesh system. It's supposed to have better sound and be able to connect up to 15 people so it should handle 4 of us with no problems.

I’ve got the F3 interphone, it’s only for rider/pillon comms and ph/sat nav connection. It works really well below 60 mph, after that it struggles due to increase helmet wind noise.

I think there F5 model is for bike to bike with greater range

That's a plus for the Cardo units, they have JBL speakers so I can hear the music through earplugs at motorway speeds and above.

I had the Interphone Sport before and the Cardo sound is in a different league.
