Got it. I’m far too low tech for all that. When I want sound on my ‘85 FXR, I just sing..🤣😊.
I was blessed to spend 20 years in Big Orange Country between Knoxville and Nashville. Love the place, but it don’t have an ocean.
I moved from the central coast of California Morro Bay, to Tennessee 13 years ago. It's nice here but there are things that definitely you have to get used to. I live between Nashville and Chattanooga in a little town called Cowan. Yes I do miss my ocean. It's funny here everyone has stickers on their cars that say Salt LifeI'm like yeah right you're an 8 to 10 hour drive to the beach. I woke up every morning looking at a harbor.

As for singing. I learned this years ago riding a Honda 450 with a full face helmet. If you sing in a full face helmet, it's stereo

Really, when I travel I use google maps. I boosted up the stereo system just so I could hear the google map girl say turn around stupid

Thanks for the smile this morning. You have a great sense of humor, perfect for living in Tennessee. When I lived in Nashville we made weekend SCUBA trips to Destin. So many good folks down there from "up North"..you know..Nashville, Birmingham, etc. it's known as the "Redneck Riviera" ( and I use the term "Redneck" proudly). You're right about the full face helmet. When I've worn one...my voice sounds MUCH better in there..!
