Bluetooth speakers


Recommended Posts

I have a JBL Clip, it works pretty well—wind noise is still wind noise so it probably sounds better to the people I'm going past than it does to me!

I also like the JBL clip - it is very water resistant, relatively easy to attach, and might not instantly disintegrate in a crash !

However I remain surprised that people want to attach speakers to EUCs. In my own experience having music playing from the machine itself ruins situational awareness (can't hear people trying to talk to you / unusual noises from wheel / warning beeps from wheel / electric cars and other nearly silent transport that you can't yet see), pedestrians and other people in parks and rec areas absolutely hate people who broadcast their music, it draws instant attention from any police you pass, and the actual quality of the music is shit anyway because a) helmet and b) EUCs can't typically carry around speakers that are large enough to produce any low end, just a horribly muddy, inaccurate, boxy mid-range and harsh, tinny highs that seem custom-designed to be of the right accentuated frequencies to annoy everyone else AND their dogs !! Headphones will be 1000 times more rewarding to listen to at the cost that they remove EVEN MORE of your situational awareness than open mounted speakers do...

Bone conduction headphones - this is the (almost) perfect solution. Almost, because the only con of the bone conduction technology is lack of deep bass. I use Aftershokz headphones and they gives me  clear and loud sound without any impact on situational awareness.

I got the YZ06 BT headset on AMZN. 26 bucks. Good, but not great sound. Has an extra port to attach a walk-in talkie. Supports Siri “heySiri” functionality. I’ve made phone calls while riding.

I am very happy with these. Being closer to the ears, they sound better than the jbl clip at the same volume (they can be set quite high and do not disturb other people), and also the stereo sound gives a very nice immersive feeling. Even if you take them to the maximum you hear the traffic enough (horn, sirens ...). The battery and overall quality is also good.
