Tried the TC's onboard speaker system today while riding. I was amazed and impressed at the relative clarity at 70+ mph. I wear a modular helmet, usually with the faceshield down, and the music came through much better than I expected (of course it was the Scorpions... ).
I've always use my helmet speakers for audio but there I was on a stretch of highway in the middle of nowhere, so I decided to see what it can do. Won't do it often but nice to know the system is capable.

I too ride with my music on. It is cristal clear at 70mph indeed and maybe 3 bars from the max volume. I do have to filter through traffic in London and sometimes stop given the bike is a bit wide therefore I lower the volume just a tad but as soon as I am on the clear I blast my music a bit louder and puts a smile on my face.
