 Disappointing October 6, 2008
These seemed like a great idea to use on the motorcycle, even though I saw the one less than enthusiastic review for that application. Bolstered by the other thumbs ups, I decided to give it a shot. I have both the Midland GXT710 GMRS and the 75-822 CB, and after contacting Midland about their wiring and respective headset/mics I grafted the Midland 22-540 headset's connector (that headset is impossible to use with a 1/2 shell helmet) to this headset using keyboard-style mini-DIN connectors so I could swap the headset between radios using their own cables and PTT switches. The mic output is really low even for the GMRS radio it is designed for. I thought it might be my soldering, but the identical operation was noted using the second, unmodified headset. The mic on radio itself was much louder. Pretty much a waste of money in my opinion.
 Midland AVPH5 Headsets July 13, 2008
The headsets work good but the "push to talk" buttons on the wire do not work well. When used they make the transmission sound scratchy and garbled. The headset wire that wrap around the head are a little big even for my large head. Maybe the problem is that I am comparing them to the higher quality "and priced" ones that we use in the fire dept by that other manufacturer that starts with "M".
We use them to talk from our labors to machine operators in our landscape business. Radios sure beat hollering back and forth.
All in all they get the job done if you use the transmit button on the radio and they are a hundred times better than the little ones that hang off your ears that came with the radios.

I bought these to use on a motorcycle and you can't hear when the speed gets above a crawl. They work great for anything else though. Only wish the headset was adjustable.
 Quality February 13, 2008
I bought these along w/ a pair of Midline GXT850s. We use them in paintball. they work great. They are very clear and easy to use. My only suggestion would be an adjustable band on the back rather than the unadjustable wire version. Otherwise, great deal.
Great stuff February 11, 2008
This headset is great. The only problem I have is if someone on the same channel keys in too strong it can hurt your ear.
