Title: Right place to post gadget and gear news? Cardo JBL units are out
Post by: jamiemac on February 16, 2019, 04:23:57 PM

I thought I'd post this for anyone else shopping for a bluetooth commo unit. Since my stuff got squished in the accident last year, I'd seen a product announcement by Cardo Systems late in December or so, that they were working with JBL to integrate their speaker technology into the Packtalk and Freecom units. I visited the website today, and they are now available. I think I'd like to try em out with the new GoldWing. Pretty fair reviews on the Packtalk Bold unit on Revzilla, as far as quality goes anyways. I've also read, that both Cardo and Sena has awful customer service, so getting them from a vendor like Zilla or a reputable dealer is recommended, so You won't have to deal directly with them should there be an issue. I can vouch for the fact that Sena has lousy cust service.

Anyways, JBL speakers would probably be way better sounding than the carp either company was using in the past. Looking forward to getting my Wingzilla all geared up.

Take care Folks. Jamie

I purchased my Cardo from Zilla when I had problems with them Zilla told me to deal with Cardo.

Ugh. Well, I guess it doesn't really matter who You buy from then. Thanks for the info.
