How can I improve my sound quality?
Sound quality is best when the speakers are placed directly opposite your ear canal. To ensure optimal placement: 1) With the helmet on, find where your ear is and ensure speakers are positioned there. 2) Remove the helmet but keep your finger in place to check speaker position. 3) Place speakers as close to your ears as possible. 4) If necessary, use Velcro booster pads to adjust positioning.
