all tune-ups are specified for a certain helmet cuz they have different shapes and slots to hook them into on the helmet

switch from giro and get a red helmet, sometimes any model can be compatable you just gotta check it out, i got the sw helmet from 2 years ago and its compatable with the new hi fi this year so test it out

the helmets look like there are 3 different kinds of earpads
the encore and the bad lt look the same
my dad bought the tune-ups for the fuse model but they fit his grio mx helmet, so i dont think it is really specific

I like Giro helmets better but i wish on the Giro tune-ups they had a mute button on the ear like the RED helmets and the volume on the ear too!

yea, the tune-ups are great, if you crank your pm3 on the gondola, it makes for good speakers. the mute button i find goes in an unusual place(i have it under my collar) so i sometimes bump it and it mute.

07 tune-ups will be wireless with buttons on the ears for volume control and such. it will also work as a wireless hook up with your cell phone. the ears will also detach and will come with a hook up so you can use them as regular headphones too.

My Giro Tune-ups are dope, I have the nine9 helmet, they let me hook up my 2-way radio for backcountry and are made by skullcandy, the sound is very good.
