Anybody have a problem adjusting the volume? I have two new helmets and can not get the volume to adjust up or down. Any suggestions?

I don't have any problem. Just twist the dial clock or anti-clock wise for volume...

You need to twist and let go, twist and let go. 1 twist and go will bring 1 level of volume up. You need to keep on doing that to max out. You can't hold it up or down... YouTube it, and you will understand what I'm referring too. Plus when you ride, keep your phone in jacket close to helmet so the connections won't go in and out. When you p I t the phone in the pocket, it goes in and out- so annoying!

Mine works but not well. I get best results when I repeatedly operate the switch instead of just holding it.

No issues with volume as I have 2 helmets. My only issue is finding visors other than clear

Yes mi helmet works fine, for the answer 1 the ringtone is not the same, in the helmet sounds different, is a sound original of the helmet not the ringtone that you have in the phone, and the second question, when i finish a call the music plays again i dont know why dont play in your helmet

It is kind of weird. you have to push the up and down arrow on the menu keys to adjust the volume and can only be done when in a call. I bought this for my dad and he was wondering the same thing. There might be another way around it but I haven't seen one.

Do your volume buttons & fwd/rev buttons work on your headset? I ordered the blue S9's as well, but when I got them, the right side played extremely lower than the left side & the volume & fwd/rev buttons did not work. The call answer & play/pause buttons did however work. I just sent them back for replacement but I'd really like to know if these headsets functioned fully for you, as I may just ask for a refund if this a common issue with this set.

Hi MRK. Thanks for your update!As I said, I checked that it was not on mute and still nothing. I actually tried what you said yesterday, but just in case I tried it again today and still no playback sound, no shutter sound... Nothing. I can see the volume bars go up and down but I still hear (guess!): Nothing.This is not my first PowerShot. I truly love them and, even though the playback sound is not perfect, is still does give an idea of how things are going.Oh well, already contacted Amazon for an exchange.Nice to hear your luck was different! Enjoy!

there should be a light blink on the helmet. if its not return. probably just a factory defect. I like mine though

First, did you order the correct headset for the device? Second, were the ends of the headset folded sharply? If they were then you probably have a "pinched end". The "tearing" of wires inside the jacket could be the cause of malfunction. I woukd ask for an exchange.

I use it on a 3/4 helmet and a full face flip up helmet. With my 3/4 helmet I purchased the base that allows me to use ear buds - less wind noise, better sound. On my full face helmet, I use the helmet speakers. Works great in both.

can you be more specific? sounds silly but did you turn the volume up? My son has 1 & it plays very well. He said it might be defective. You can return it to amazon and they will send you another. Lora K. Masso

I just got mine, so I'm hoping it works itself out ... but while it is very smooth during the motion, it is NOT smooth at all from a dead still start. It always jerks if the head has been setting for more than 5 or so seconds ... no matter how loose the screws.

Mine also failed due to sweat. Same problems noted here. The volume control went haywire and stuck on full blast.

Having recently gotten a G11, I was perplexed by this problem as well, saw this post, hit the up arrow on video playback, and voila: sound at last. Somehow I'd missed this instruction on page 33 of the manual: "press the [up arrow & down arrow of the wheel] to adjust the volume." Makes sense, though not so intuitive. One point I'd offer: on my G11 it doesn't matter whether I have operational sounds (shutter, startup, etc.) on mute or at a low setting. Playback audio can still be heard provided one taps the up arrow button. If a number of other people have had the same problem, Canon might want to add this instruction to the troubleshooting pages in the back of the manual.

Pretty good, though lacking in bass. I assume this is also largely dependent on the helmet you're going to mount it in. It comes with several foam pads so you can space the speakers as close to your ears as possible. I have mine setup in a Shoei Hornet DS, with the speakers just touching my ears. Gets plenty loud, never have to turn it up all the way, but again, lacking in bass a little. Otherwise, great quality.

Hi There is no volume or mic adjustment on the headset, so please go to the control panel of your PC to adjust the setting on the outer speaker

I replaced mine. The volume button never worked properly The sound quality was poor. If you replace the volume button with a smart phone you could use the equalizer on it but adjusting it is hard because your fingers don't work on the touch screen after riding your motorcycle .

Move the phone up or down to the point where the volume knobs are exposed. It takes a bit getting used to while riding and trying to simultaneously adjust the volume.
