I have an Autocom system, and the speakers that came with it are awful. No bass, and low volume; sounded like a mid 60's era transistor radio. They sucked so bad that I went with ear buds for about two years.
I finally got tired of having to deal with the ear buds (longing for the days when I simply put the helmet on), and searched for a solution, other than starting from scratch with a whole new comm system.
I found these speakers, and the sound is great! They come with a standard audio jack, and volume control, but I simply spliced them into my Autocom Helmet Harness.
Couple of pointers:
* Splicing those tiny wires requires patience. The wiring itself is about the width of a human hair!
* When installing into helmet, don't just put the speakers into the speaker well (I have a C3). Properly align them with your ears (experiment with location) prior to velcroing them into place. A mm or two in any direction makes a huge difference.
Cost was $79.95 plus shipping.
