How good is the outgoing voice quality? Noise cancelling effective in blocking out wind noise? Can people hear you well in noisy environments?

They are not vey good to talk. Its been a long tome don't remember using them to talk. The sound quality as headphones was very good. If I remember correctly microphone was on one side and had no noise cancelling. If you are thinking of getting bluetooth headphones there are others that are less bulky. I changed my jabra for some sennheiser mm100, these are lighter and less bulky. They also have the microphone on one side and in a noisy environment people don't hear very well. But sound quality is very good.

In using these headphones, I remember I had excellent call quality and they worked well at my job which was a factory environment. The only complaint I had about these headphones is they were VERY heavy on my ears. My ears were in pain after an eight-hour shift.

Glad to help...People often see to be able to tell when I am using the headphones....when in low to med noise environments the output is great. Seemingly the headphones do not defeat exterior noise so the result is often a mixture of everything that is going on my side of the call. Functionality is awesome...as long as you're in an enviro that is not noisy you will love 'em.

People tell me that I sound "normal" to them for a cell phone call. And, yes they can hear in noisy environments. I use mine more for listening to music from my iPhone. It's great not having wires hanging and yet still getting a decent sound. Also, the "tapping" works well to activate features such as forward to next song etc.

Without sound, you may hear a "shell ocean" effect that is clearly audible because the seal is not perfect (at least for me). With sound on at even a moderate level, I'm not able to hear people talking loudly, even if they're nearby. But no, they are not noise cancelling. They isolate somewhat but more like good ear muffs.

I don't know about noise cancellation, but my friend has the exact same headset and the sound quality coming from him sounds as good or better then everyone else.

The unit appears to do very well with any kind of background noise. I've been in bars with a band playing so loud I had cover my ears to hear my caller and they asked me why I was shouting! I have worn it and had conversations while on my bike with 20mph wind and city traffic and no complains about any noise. In fact they don't realize I'm on my bike. I've yet to peddle at 70 mph but if you can keep it in your ear the wind sound shouldn't be a problem. I left mine in a rental car and liked it so much I'm shopping for the exact replacement.

Don't worry about that. i believe sena has a noise cancelling system that helps to makes the speaking voice much clearer. The only noise that should be worried is the wind since your friend doesn't wear full face helmet, I think. My brother-in-law rides a road glide with screaming eagle intake and exhaust and I still can chat with him clearly.

While not good on noise isolation it definately does not snag. I use mine while biking and it lets me hear the traffic.

I haven't had any problems when there is a fair amount of wind noise. My advice is to ensure that you have the right sized buds so it can go deep in your ear canal to block out outside noise. It's an excellent product.

Mic is overall good but sometimes people can't hear me where there's a lot of noise. Noise isolation is good, too much noise isolation is dangerous

My experience out in my yard and in a park have both been positive. I would recommend these for smaller groups and especially for the ease of transfer. Do not plan on these speakers being a replacement for a formal PA system unless you have more than one set with speaker stands. Wind has not decreased the clarity of the sound. I would say the range of sound in an open field without a crowd would be up to 40 yards while maintaining separation and depth for music and articulation for speaking. Please let me know what your experience was.

It does a pretty good job at noise canceling without any music or sound. I'm not sure how it compares to others though... I would say yes.

These block out ambient noises extremely well. But, you can still hear people talking which to me, is a good thing. As far as annoying others... I don't think you'll have a problem with that. It, of course would depend on how loud you have them. When I am sitting next to my husband, I cannot hear them when he is listening to his music through them. I am fairly sensitive to that, especially when I'm listening to something else and I don't want to hear his music. Hope that helps.

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.

That is one thing nice about this headset. It has the wind mic on it, which helps reduce wind noise. However, as all the others recommended, adjust the mic boom and it should help minimize or eliminate it.

Actually, I'd say it doesn't do that great of a job blocking outside noise. On a scale of 1-10, I would give it a 4. Mostly it only lets louder noises in, but when nothing is going on ingame or if there is no music, you can hear others talking quite clearly. That being said, it runs pretty much silent when on someone's head. When my ears get a bit achy, I'll set them on the table next to me, and I can listen to whatever pretty easily. HOWEVER, as soon as it is on a person's head, nobody but the wearer (or people really really close, when at high volumes) can hear the content. Also, in case you wanted to know, the directional mic does a great job at reducing accidental noise traffic transmission. Hop this all helps.

Hi Schmitty,This NC13headphones can reduce up to 87.4% ambient noise when noise canceling circuit isactivated. Thanks. >Joffrey

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.

Voice recognition with the Jabra is great. I haven't received any complaints while using it. Everyone hears me just fine. And it has a wind reduction feature if used outdoors. I love mine. I highly recommend it.
