How well would this work in a convertible with the top down? Would the added wind/road noise through the mic let the caller hear me clearly?

Probably not. I usually turn off my AC because of the microphones proximity to the vent and having had problems before (not another convenient place for it in my car).

I would say it will depend on your stereo speakers and how much noise is around you..? If you are on a busy hwy w truck flying by etc then u probably wont hear much?! Think like if you using speaker on your phone..more noise harder to hear!

I've stood on rooftops in a 20 mph wind, worked in radio cabinets with fans blowing right in my face and never had a problem. Just be sure to use the windscreens supplied with the headset. You will be amazed.

to be very honnest, I beleive it would not be the best set-up. since you have alot of wind coming to your face. Also, any microphone with your set-up will cause noise to the other passenger. Hope my response is clear enough. Thank you....

works great. but it cuts out the audio if you're in really windy conditions. i.e can't listen to audio files while riding a motorcycle

I like it. I filmed a cousin's outdoor wedding from behind the back row, and it picked up the audio better than a lot of the people in the audience were able to hear it. Not much wind noise either. The only bad audio I've gotten from it was when I filmed close to some kind of drain that was moving a fair amount of water off a dock and into the water below, but I'm not sure any built-in mic would've done well with that much din in the background. (To its credit, I can still make out most of the words in that recording.)

Me and the wife had one on a sporty with no windshield we didn't have any problem sound quality was very good. We would talk back-and-forth and both listen to music separately. I could even use the built-in voice commands on an iPhone and send text messages while riding, but the translation was hit and miss .

In very windy environments, the foam windscreen that ships with it does not cut out the noise. I suggest a dead cat and have had great luck using these outdoors with heavy wind. Here is a sample of sound outdoors using the H4n with a dead cathttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r7gJNIX9gng&list;=PLj4BSJLnVpNznZykqlJht9kslOnu4JwHy&index;=8

I do believe so! It has very crisp, clear sound recording for it's price, for sure. I'd also buy a windscreen (pop filter) to ease out the harsh "P's" and "S's", as well as minimizing wind and other faint background noise. I bought one of these, then cut out a small hole on the face to make room for the USB to fit through~On Stage Foam Ball-Type Mic Windscreen, Black

callers hear you with out noise. I drove 65m/h with windows roll down and noise cancellation work very well for me

The best you can do is either put a dead cat on it or a blimp. It doesn't pick up much noise outside anyway unless it's REALLY windy. Mild wind noise will cancel itself out unless it's hitting the mic dead on the front end.As for distance, the sound quality will deteriorate with distance. I would not go more than 5-8 feet from the subject. Use a boom if needed.

i've been able to pick up sound up to as far as 20 feet of someone talking to another person. However, the noise will increase as well. outdoors, you'd be better off with a windfur or a blimp or a lav or a lav with fur. but this alone won't block wind. it just produces great sound quality, nice bass, balanced treble, compared to on-camera mics or cheaper mics. For even better results, i hear that the NTG3 works as good as the Senheiser 416, which is the minimum mic hollywood would use. then put the NTG3/416 in a blimp with fur on the blimp and that will be the best wind cutting system.

Works pretty good if you use the little mic cover that comes with it, that help cut down on the wind noise.

The microphone have to be connect to the back of the unit, the same have a plug (pink) where you can plugin the mic. is realy easy. Tehn you atach the mic to any surface in the car (could be in the whell or dash) wher have good reception of your voice.

I don't really use this headset for talking as more for working out though one time I did answer a call while I was running outside. The person on the other end could easily hear me speak to them and didn't complain of any background noise though there wasn't much noise in the background besides the wind. I would recommend getting something else though if you plan to take calls on.

There is some slight wind noise through the mic but I installed the Vega speaker pads I found on Amazon from Orange Choppers in Florida and it helped tremendously. There is a noise cancellation setting in the Sena that you can also use and it helps.

probably it works....I´m not applying for this purpose..it is working for me as speaker and mobile bluetooh on car...it works very well for this situations

its really weird that I got this question today. Up until about 3 days ago it was perfect. People could hear from quite a distance. Now in the car people cannot understand what I'm saying. Its very sensitive but it seems like you're not blocking noise. Its not blocking noise. I was thinking of calling them to find out what was up. Been real disappointed lately period last 3 4 days
