    Default Radio on 2014

    The radio and or speakers really sucks, always sounds like it’s
    just Off the station. Then bought a Sena20 so I could listen to tunes or
    Audibles from my IPhone but over about 30 mph can’t hear it.

    Default Sena 20

    We have the Sena 20 also. A couple of things to check: (1) be sure that your setting in the Sena app on your phone are not set to limit volume. (2) Ensure the volume on your phone is turned to "11" (all the way up. Then all of volume control is on the Sena. This should allow you to turn it up loud enough to hear regardless of what you are listening to ... XM app, your own tunes, Pandora.

    It took me a while to get BRP Connect and my Sena20s to work in a manner I liked. I use BRP Connect for Genius Maps (pre-plan your route before connecting - makes life easier - and POIs easy to find while riding), and Rever (just because I like to track my rides). All of my music (my tunes, XM app, Pandora) comes from my phone. I do not use BRP Connect. Sena of course also provide my phone connectivity but I see the call on the display.

    Good Luck.

    Welcome to the club. Much has been said over the past few months about the Spyder's receiver (it's not very good).

    As to the speakers, they are more than adequate for listening to whatever you are piping through them up to a certain speed (varies), but what else do you expect? If you want to listen to music, pipe it through your helmet headset.

    If you can't hear it through your helmet headset, it has nothing to do with the Spyder sound system.
