Maxquall Referee Headset 3 Referees Talk Same time Football Wireless Headsets Coach Headset Soccer Communication System Sets

I had an issue with the first set of comm's that I received. I could not pair them or hear anything. I was pretty sure, it was the headsets. My second set arrived and boom.... right away I was able to pair them and they worked great. Guess I had so much practice from the first set. Can't wait for my volleyball match tonight.

Is this soccer referee comm system better quality than that $2000 comm system? No. Does it pair effortlessly every single time like the $2000 comm system? No. Does it offer crystal clear, background noise filtering audio like the $2000 comm system? No. But do you know what it does? It allows me communicate with all refs on the field and make better informed decisions in real time. No more trying to get each other's attention and then using discrete hand signals to communicate what we need to do. I see a lot of soccer ref message boards speak poorly of these Chinese made Bluetooth comms, encouraging us to fork over $2000 for "professional communication systems". But sorry, that's not going to happen. Yes, there's a few quirks. The pairing process is not intuitive, but I write down the steps on a piece of paper and keep it with the kit. I can turn on the comms and pair all units pressing just one button on each unit about 75% of the time. Once in a while I have to redo the pairing process, but you'll get the hang of it. The audio has a few crackles when you talk and the mics pick up everything from heavy breathing as you sprint down the field on a fast breakaway, to picking up conversations from the technical area. I kind of prefer this when I'm the AR, as you can hear the entire conversation the referee is having with a player. The $2000 comms filter out ambient sound and you can only hear the refs side of the conversation. The best things about this system is the range and the battery life. Be sure and unplug your mic if you leave to go the the bathroom, or you'll be broadcasting to your crew your trip to the urinal. It's got that much range. And it has crazy long battery life too. I routinely go back to back games with no problem and I once did 3 back to back 45 min half games and they were still going strong. I've done about 30 games with these comms and bang for your buck, I couldn't be happier. Will they last years and years? Dunno. I did have to order new earpieces, as the ones included were pretty flimsy and started coming apart after only a few games. If you can find the comms that have the thicker earpieces, then I'd say go with that one.

just wanted to follow up. I had one of the V6 units stop working. I asked for help and was given an address (very long address) to mail the unit back. I was not sure I was going to get a replacement but today my new unit arrived fully working and ready for the spring season. It took about 2 months for the new unit to arrive but they came through. Lets see if I can make it through the spring season! I have increased the rating to 5 starts for now. I have used the system in 10 games over the past several weeks. I only had to fully sync one time. However, be sure to give time during your pre-game to test that everyone can hear each other. I have found that if you do lose a member of the team, if they just press the motorcycle button they return. I have done a 3 game set (over 6 hours) without any issues. Communication is clear and extremely helpful as I can watch the play and not look for a flag or subs. It really eliminates any confusion and the ability to pass information to coaches. It is also helpful to communicate with some of the new referees. I can easily say, "you need to move to the second to last defender" or just check on how they are doing. It would have been a 5-star if one of the ear holders did not break. The cord is very long. I taped over half of it up.

For the price these work great. You should invest in some extra foam mic windscreens, and some ear bud covers. I did buy another single unit to allow four crew members to communicate. There were no instructions, but I found some to get me started. I created some more to share... Pairing instructions (one V4 to two V6): 1) Press and hold motorcycle button on V4 and V6-1 until both turn on 2) Hold motorcycle on V6-1 until V6 flashes red/blue. 3) Press and hold “A” on V4 until it flashes blue/red 4) Press motorcycle again on V6-1 – it will flash blue 5) When V4 flashes blue, press V6-1 motorcycle button again – both units will flash in sync 6) Turn off V4 and V6-1 7) Press and hold motorcycle on V4 and V6-2 until both turn on. 8) While holding motorcycle on V6-2, press and hold “B” on V4 until both flash blue and red 9) Press motorcycle on V6-2 10) When both flash blue, press motorcycle on V6-2 again 11) Turn on V6-1 – all three units will sync. Pairing Instructions (two V4 and two V6): 1) Press and hold motorcycle button on first V4 and V6 until both turn on (referenced as V4-1 and V6-1). 2) Hold motorcycle on V6-1 until V6-1 flashes red/blue. 3) Press and hold “A” on V4-1 until it flashes blue/red 4) Press motorcycle again on V6-1 – it will flash blue 5) When V4 flashes blue, press V6-1 motorcycle button again – both units will flash in sync 6) Turn off V4 and V6 units. 7) Repeat steps 1-6 for second V4-2 and V6-2 units. 8) Turn on and V4-1 and V4-2 units. 9) Press and hold "B" button on both units until each flashes blue and red. 10) Press "B" again on only the V4-1 unit. The LED flashes blue. 11) Once the other V4-2 unit's LED flashes blue, Press "B" one last time. 12) When the two V4 units' LED lights flash in synchronization (or close), the units are paired. 13) Turn off all units. 14) Turn each unit on, one at a time, allowing about 10-15 seconds to reestablish links with the other units.

these are well priced and work well. however, getting a belt clip is a nightmare have managed to get a camera helmet clip to fit
