Who said you couldn’t mix business with pleasure? It’s nuking outside, but with the Giro TuneUps with Bluetooth Link, you can still make that conference call meeting. With the simple touch of your wireless Bluetooth, you can take that important call, and when you’re done, simply press the button again to continue rocking out to Juke Box Hero. No fumbling. No fuss. No dropping your cell phone on the chairlift and watching it fall down into the snow. Just one easy press of a button. In addition, the super thin TuneUps speakers drop into the earflaps of your compatible Giro helmet.

Bottom Line: If only everything in life were this simple.

Talk shop with all the gear freaks out there: ask 'em questions, upload/browse photos, and give your 2¢.

I'm not quite sure what the bluetooth is for, if it has to be wired into the iphone? Can you bypass the bluetooth link, and wire directly from speakers to iPhoneS, and use the microphone wirelessly?

the blue tooth only works for the phone - whats the point of that if you have to wire it to your phone for music anyway? broke after 3 months - does not play on left ear.

Volume control is sketchy. Too high and it is distorted, too low, and you can't hear the phone.

Backcountry guarantee is fantastic. They stand by their product, even when the manufacturer does not. I will gladly buy from Backcountry again.

I have the same problem with last years model the left ear does not work. Also on another set purchased the button to stop the music does not work. The place where I purchased did not bother to tell me they have had numerous problems until after the sale. Told me to contact Skull Candy.

Skullcandy's Lifetime warranty is not included with this product. These are manufactured by Skullcandy but not supported by them. They told me to call Giro and see if they will honor the warranty.

Skullcandy has a lifetime warranty, you can always call them and have them ship you a replacement for free... But in that case, so can backcountry.

Great improvement over prior versions. Nice to listen to stereo music and be able to answer phone calls. Not that I will answer the phone, but nice to know who is trying to call me without having to open my shell!

Mine stopped working the first day out skiing. I could not hear any music using the Skull Candy devise, only if I hooked up my Iphonedirectly to the earphones. None of the ski shop techs could get it to work either and many told me they had preivous issues with the Skull Candy devises before and prefer the Smith brand ones instead... and they ski all the time. I am returning mine.

Hello all, Sorry for the stupid question but I am a bit lost

Hello all,

Sorry for the stupid question but I am a bit lost between this model and the 200$ wireless thing so here's my config.

I have an HTC phone which does BT and music.

Do i need to wire with a cable the phone to the kit to get the music and when a call comes in it switches automatically to BT, cuts the music (which it already does with a wired headset plugged to the phone), gets the call and when i hang up it resumes the music ?

basically what does the $200 kit does that this one doesn't ?

Thanks

This one requires a wire from the phone to the bluetooth link control. The 200.00 one doesnt required that wire..

Bluetooth no - wired yes but with no control. Droid works great with stored music or streaming audio. Currently you can jailbreak an iphone and get bluetooth audio but it's mono only. Maybe the new Verizon iphone will provide stereo bluetooth with / without jailbreaking. Currently you can jailbreak an iphone and get bluetooth audio but it's on mono only.
