Got them about a week ago and finally got a chance to use them it was nice to see that the cord that the inline volume and mute are in actually detach from the headphones so you can put them in your helmet (the headphone cable is long enough to hang to the bottom edge of the helmet and the rest of the cord/inline vloume/ mute can stay in your jacket so you don't have to take the entire headphone cable out/ put it back in everytime)so you can leave the other 3/4 of the cable in your jacket all the time, sound quality is good, only complaint is (don't know if it was just mine or all of them) is if I use the 3/4 of the cable with the volume/ mute I can hear music but no lyrics, I just use a typical aux cable to go from the helmet to my ipod and works good I can deal with it since my inline/mute would be inside my jacket instead of the outside

They drop into the earpads on your helmet, unless your Ember is 2010, this will not work.

Great Sound

I bought the Giro Tuneups Audio Drops for my Giro Revolver helmet. Easy to install and connect to my MP3 player. More than enough volume, I set my MP3 player at 50% volume and that is great. Super sound reproduction, beats ear buds by a long shot. The mute button is easy to use, even with gloves on. I am very happy with the Giro Tuneups Audio Drops.

They get it done

These are cool headphones, they have enough volume to hear at higher speeds. I would like some control other than just volume but for what they are its just fine. I guess I didnt have the audio compatible Giro Shiv helmet so I had to resort to ripping my ear pads open and cutting out some foam for the head phone and super gluing it back together, just a warning be sure you can easily open your ear pad before considering these.

Most Certainly. The cable just plugs right into the same hole that the headphones go into.

How loud do these drops get? For example, is it more of a speaker than a headphone? Long story short, my boyfriend bought a Sessions ski jacked with built in speaker "pockets" around his collar. I was thinking something like this could be the right size to fit inside it, but the question is, will it be loud enough if it isn't right against his ear?

No. You need last years Tuneups (2009 or older). It's an entire earpad with the speaker already inside. The good news is they should be on sale.

Tuneup Drops only work with 2010 helmets. You'll need last years tuneups that come with the entire ear pad. They should be on sale on the site.

how do these fit into the ear pads of the compatible helmets and will they make your ears hurt after wearing them for a while?

The ear pad has a velcro pocket, open the pocket and pull out the open cell foam, push out the inner circle, insert the speaker and "drop" it back into the ear pad. Mine are really comfortable. If you get too much pressure you could easily remove the speakers and keep ripping for the day. This is the best and most versatile system I have seen.

If you buy a 2010 Giro snow helmet get the TuneUp Drops, they are compatible with all NEW Giro adult snow helmets. The earpad of the 2010 helmets have a velcro pocket that yo drop the "drops" in and go. If you have an older model helmet get the original tuneups.
