Trying to decide if it’s worth it. Do you have to really blast it to hear it ?

For longer rides I used my Sena Bluetooth headset in my full face helmet .

Shorter rides I have a half helmet so no headset on that.
I am actually in the middle of researching that as well. I am hoping to get away with lowers. I will share my findings there is so much info out there. How you like your helmet?
