Hope I’m not hijacking the thread, but do most of these systems work with each other or is it brand to brand?

 

Thanks about the bikes. Sena does not replace batteries but there are some DIY tutorials online on how to change a battery in a Sena headset. Here's one link I saw. Also, you can increase your bass and treble from your Smartphone. I have an iPhone and I just go to settings, to music, to EQ. My phone has all types of settings....bass boost, treble boost etc.

 

My Sena 10S can communicate with other brands. Not all do though. You have to make are it has the universal intercom feature.

 

Sena peaked with the SMH10, the rest of their units since then have been crap.

I've gone through a Sean SMH10R, 30K, 20S EVO, and my current 10S. None of them had good bass or enough volume to use with ear plugs. Only time I got halfway decent audio was using ear buds or plug phones. I got the 10S to fit my Bell helmet, but the specific adapter I had to buy for $70 extra didn't work. If the rest of the guys I ride with didn't have Sena's I'd send my 10S back to Amazon.

And not to mention Sena's customer service SUCKS and is very un-responsive and won't do anything for you.

 

I have to disagree. I've had my 10S for over 3 years now and never had any issues. I wear ear plugs when I ride too and I can hear my speakers perfectly fine. Maybe if you readjust the placement of your speakers in your helmet you'll get better sound. And as I mentioned in an earlier post, you can adjust your bass and treble from your smart phone if you need more bass. Are you sure you bought or received the correct adapter? They have different ones for the SMH10R and the 10S.

 

Can any of the sena units be used with out the mike ? Looking for just music and gps.

 

Like I said. I want to but a replacement battery and replace it myself. If I screw them up I will buy some type of headset. I don't have anything to lose except the cost of the batteries. I talked to Sena yesterday. The guy said he would find out about a replacement battery. I told him if I could get one I would replace it.
Once again the battery number I saw one is

XK 423040 140609
450 mah 3.7V 1.66wh
In anyone knows who might sell something like this please let me know. I hope to hear from Sena but I don't know. Thanks. Ride Safe

 

Yes tried all that, you sound like Sena Tech support but you forgot to tell me to turn it of and on again, then do a factory reset.

And my smart phone is a Galaxy 5, haven't found any adjustments for bass and treble on it.

 

LOL maybe I should get a job at Sena, but then again, I did forget to tell you to turn it off and on. I know it sucks when you drop good money and something doesn't work right for you. It's happened to me to with other products. On my iPhone I just go tosettings, then to music, to EQ to increase the bass. Not sure if it's similar on the Galaxy.

 

You are over qualified, you respond too quickly.
