Get a bern helmet and get a pair of skullcandy icon/recruits. You can wear the headphones underneath. Best sound system known to man

If by best, you mean absolute worst, then sure, the best.

Bose makes decent stuff on a consumer level.  They get the bad rep for their lack of quality for the price.  They have a super high end pricepoint with midrange quality and sound.  Skullcandy is terrible.

I've seen the Giro audio helmets on tramdock/backcountry a few times for around $90. Just need to wait for it to happen.

Otherwise you can get a Smith Holt for $75 and a Skullcandy audio helmet kit for $29. Probably cheaper if you look online.

I love skullcandy and own both them and bose. The icons are cheep as hell and sound pretty good and are small enough to fit under a bern helmet. Bose is nice but i personally would take the Skullcrushers over bose anyday
