Default Helmet to helmet intercoms?

Hey everybody! Now that my wife and I are enjoying our E-Glide Classic we find that we need a way to talk to one another without having to resort to the WW1 airplane method. When I enquired about the HD set at my dealer, the parts guy was very honest in telling me that the HD sets were a disapointment and that alot of people complained about them or just brought them back for refund. So, what do you all use? I would be most grateful for any feedback.

Stay away from Chatterbox - pure overpriced JUNK.

I have Autocom now and am very happy. J&M makes very good stuff and you can buy a helmet with the ear and mouth pieces already installed. Check their website.

Have to agree that the Autocom is a good set. Intercom works well - I'm using a full face and the wife uses a 3/4 with face shield. We also have a MyFi XM Sat and it gives acceptable performance - the Autocom is better on voice than music but I haven't heard of a system that does both well.
