Yes, just turn the knob enough to turn the unit on. Then turn the knob back right at the detent without turning it off. The knob is for the mike sensitivity. If you need to turn it up during a conversation, just turn it up.

You may be right, there is the knob adjustment and that is probably only for the intercom and the buttons are for the bluetooth. The instructions weren't clear on that or maybe they were and I just didn't get it. That knob I believe is only on off swith.

The knob, is for on/off and microphone volume. The two buttons under the unit are to turn the volume of the speakers up and down. In normail use, I only touch the 2 buttons to turn volume up and down.

So all I have to do is just keep the knob turned all the way down for listening to tunes? Thanks both of you.

Yup, for the most part, I don't turn that knob and music is clear as heck. No wind noise. Especially because the Nolan has a chin curtain that blocks wind that comes from under the helmet essentially isolating the inside from most wind noise.

I just realized that the new blackberry curve has stereo bluetooth capabilities. My work blackberry is dying and they ordered me a new curve. So it just may be a matter of downloading some music files. I will see what it takes when I get it.
Also I talked to J&M and they told me that their headset can support 5 different devices at once, so having the iPhone as the phone and the blackberry as the player may work out better than having the iPhone/dongle setup.

No, if I have the volume turned all the way down, I cannot hear the mic at all. Just the music

Well I just finished the installation of the JM unit in the Arai., I had to embed the speakers very deep into the foam so they wouldn't rub on my ears. I am having trouble getting the phone to work and the MP3 to work at the same time. The JM instructions leave a bit to be desired. When I talked to them they said you could connect up to 5 devices at once. There is a big difference in the Arai helmet and Schuberth, the Arai is very highly refined and the fit is very precise. The difference in quality of the shield is huge, looking at both side by side and wearing them, the differences become more and more apparent.. IMHO the Arai is just better thought out, most likely by virtue of the amount of time they have been making helmets.
The good part is the weather is normalizing and that means days of over 50 and hopefully drier.
