Great product, good price.......2007-09-19
I purchased the Midland AVPH1 Open Face Helment Headset for Midland GMRS with a GXT710VP3 radio. The headset delivers great clear sound quality - easy to understand while dirt biking at a high rate of speed -- although that also has to do with the radio as the speakers can only produce what the radio puts out. It was also quite easy to install in my helmet: a typical motocross helmet with open face for goggles and closed, pointed mouth protection. The adhesive backed velcro disk that mounts the mic base to the helmet holds securely -- something I initially doubted. I routed the flexible mic boom in a spiral fashion under the helmet bottom and located the mic right in front of my mouth position. To hold it in place and make it easy to get the helmet on and off without disturbing the headset I drilled two very small holes in the helmet mouth protection and ran a small wire tie in one hole, around the mic boom just behind the mice pickup and back out through the second hole, into the tie clasp and cut it off flush so that there is only the tiny end visible and nothing to catch on. I didn't pull it tight, just snuggish to prevent movement without binding or stressing the boom. As for wires,I didn't want the wire junction where mic, left speaker, right speaker come together hanging down putting tension on the mic mount or wires so I just taped everything to the back of the helmet leaving the one wire with the plug end that goes to the radio harness hanging down off the back. I just used silver duct tape. Some people might object to this type of thing. But I prefer function over some sort of stylish look -- although my helmet is silver, like the duct tape (and Red Green would be proud!). The speakers mounted easily in the ear recesses of my helmet also with a peal and stick adhesive backing velcro pad and the wires routed easily between helmet padding pieces. I cleaned the mounting surface for the speakers and mic mounting points with alcohol first to get a good stick. The speakers have a soft cover and do not hurt my ears (or even touch them much). Although mounting the same set-up in my wife's closed face helmet of different manufacture which had more ear/upper cheek padding required taking the helmet padding piece out, pealing back the cloth and cutting out some foam so that the speaker did not press into her ear and cheek bone. That was not hard either -- about 30 minutes total for her helmet.
The jury is still out on the push to talk switch. I'm glad it was included. However, for dirt biking I did not think it prudent to mount it to the handlebars as intended since falling off would rip the whole thing apart at the plug or elsewhere. So I wrap the push to talk switch around my left thumb, pointing down and a little in on my left thumb so that I can grip the handle grip well, but extend my middle finger and thumb toward each other while still holing on to push the button. Works well. I hold the wiring in place by routing it from the radio (mounted on my belt on the left side toward the back) inside my shirt and body armor, up the back and down the arm and out the inside elbow hole, and along the inside of my forearm. Takes about 2 full minutes to route. But it is nice to be able to communicate with my riding buddies (or wife on easier rides) whereas we had to stop before. If using the VOX function, which also works very well as long as you put in one word you don't intend anyone to hear first (or say "Ahhh for one half second) to get it going. In that case you can just stuff the wires in your pocket and go after running the helmet wire up your back and plugging it in and taping it (for serious riding). I recommend taping the connections anyway to keep crap out of the din connector.
Overall, it's a great setup and great sound quality.
Midland GMRS Headset.......2007-05-24
My husband and I purchased the headsets to use on our ATV's. It allows us to each ride at our own pace without having to worry about the other one as we can now keep in contact with each other. We have been very happy with how the headsets work. The sound is clear and crisp. The only flaw that I have found is that the microphone is attached to the helmet with a small velcro pad and the microphone comes loose and falls off. It's not the velcro that comes free, it is the sticky backing. I'm going to use a little contact cement and secure it better. Small problem when overall I'm very pleased with the operation of the headsets.
Biker in need of communication.......2007-05-12
I bought the Midland 15 mile 2 way radios at Best Buy but no one had the headset adaptor to match the radios to our helments so my partner and I could communicate on the bikes when we rode. I found the full helmet headset on Amazon but only needed the connector out of the set to work with the system alread built into the motorcycle helments, after recieving the full set I found that the sound quality from the Midland set was so much better than the 300.00 system I purchased from Yamaha that I switched all of it over to the Midland. Thanks for putting out a high quality product at a reasonable price. This headset is great
Bulky to use............2006-08-18
The cords provided for the hook-ups are way too long....especially when you are riding a motorcycle....I could wrap them around me twice and still have cord left. It would be very easy to get caught up in these when turning a corner. We returned the item...
All the better it gets.......2006-08-17
These work great. This is the best price. This is the best quality available. In reality they are worth no more than $10 and I'm sure someone giggles every time some one buys a set. Think about it ,, these cost more than most radios! What a screw job! but this is the best screwing of all the headsets

Good mounts.......2007-12-14
I got these mounts for the system in my basement. When I opened the package, I worried that they might be cheaply made, as they are plastic, but they are solid, so don't let that stop you. The package contained any attachment or tool that you'd need to put these up anywhere (excluding a drill, but the bit you need comes with it). The drywall anchors leave something to be desired, as they are not made to prevent spinning when you put in the screws. I had to use my own. Other than that, I am very pleased, however I can see how I will need to keep the included allen wrench handy as the screws will likely get loose over time and the speaker positioning screws would need adjusting over time, due to vibrations from the speakers when in use. I am not at all concerned with the possibility of the speakers falling down. These mounts are pretty solid. I am pretty pleased.
Good little mounts.......2006-12-20
I used these mounts for little cube surround speakers. They're some of the most affordable ones I've seen. Too many are just ripoffs for what you're getting. I just installed these, two from the ceiling and three on the wall. Easy to setup and hold the speaker at various angles via 3 small hex nuts. Only complaint is very common with wall mount hardware, the plastic wall anchors for drywall are the cheap and flimsy kind that are easy to push too far into the wall and also spin freely in the predrilled hole. I just used my own.
Great Product for the Price.......2006-01-29
I purchased these to hang my surround sound speakers. They work great, they're easy to adjust and include all the hardware and tools to mount.
