Default Cardo Systems Scala vs. Chatterbox Comms.

Looking for information from folks as to who is using which more... I've used the Scala Q2 for years but am not happy with the latest vs of the Q2 Pro set.. the sound seems distorted compared to older versions of the Q2 set I've owned.

I'm now considering the Chatterbox set. Anyone using Chatterbox..? If so , Pro's and Con's...

This may not help much since I'm talking cars but...... I'm an in-car instructor and teach high performance driving. I've been using a chatterbox for years to talk to students and it's the most popular intercom used by the instructors mainly for the price. The guys that use the Scala swear by it but I've never personally tried it. It will mainly boil down to personal preferance. I haven't used it on the bike. If it's important she talks in my ear, if not it can wait till we stop.

Be sure to let us know how the UClear units work out for you.
I am checking all types out myself.

I have the Scala G4 and love it. Tried chatterbox, but didn't have the options I wanted, so went with the Scala
