I use a modular helmet and I have a Sena 30k with upgraded HD speakers. The HD speakers make a night and day difference..

The JBLs on my Cardo PackTalk bold are damn good, I haven't used them in a couple of years, I just hate wearing the FF unless the weather is ****, and I only had the Cardo linked to my phone. I need to get it linked to the bike, and try them again.

I had a Sena system in my full face helmet, no matter what I tried I could not get the volume I wanted out of them. Tried upgrading to the HD speakers and they made only a slight difference. Brought them closer to my ears, farther away from my ears, made sure they were centered on my ear, wore ear plugs to try and cut out on the wind noise but all to no avail. Never felt like they were over half volume. Made sure the dial was all the way up, made sure my phone was all the way up, checked all my audio settings, donwnloaded the sena app which was supposed to help, dealt with Sena customer support who were basically useless. Bought some $100 noise cancelling wireless ear buds that work a thousand times better. Your mileage may vary. I never used it to talk on the phone was solely for music.
