my friend and I got the dual package and we just received it today. Used it immediately out in a 3-4 hour ride and we were basically just non-stop chatting throughout the entire ride. It's so awesome! Gone are the days where you could only get a few words in at stop lights and gone are the times where confusion would ensue due to not knowing which turns to go on.
It worked!!!!!! I’m using Sena 10 and it won’t work before I update my software, you have to go to Sena website, download updating program and just follow that, Now both of my Sena can share music! Make sure you’re up to new version, that’s the only way it’ll work!
Please do a detail video on the product. I have bought this recently and did get the manual but would love it if i could see the demonstration. Sena 10S
Thanks for the video but just one question please - so as I understand, if both headsets are sharing music, you can't talk to each other unless you press the button to open the intercom channel? If that's the case, that kinda sucks. Ideally all channels should be open so you can both listen to music and when one of you talks the music gets muted and then comes back when talking stops. This is how it works on my old wired Autocom system.
Tried this method ytd, it works alright for a white but sometimes our helmet bumps and it snaps the smh10 out of the music sharing back to intercom, I have VOX turned off, any thoughts here?
Yesterday I tried to use the intercom and one of the set heard me well but I can't heard the other person. I tried several time and nothing!! .Is something I doing wrong?
Hi, I can configure both headsets to hear music, but when I want both headsets to hear SmartPhone GPS turn by turn ONLY I cannot. Music plays and turn by turn on Google Maps plays over it. I can only get the Google Maps to play solely on one headset. Is there something else I should be doing OR is this function unavailable whilst on dual. ?
Can you only share music through Bluetooth . I have an ipod and wanted to share that music with my riding partner. I'm using the ipod jack on the sena. Does this mean I can only listen to the ipod music and have to go buy a new I pod with blue tooth.
Um? Can you share music and talk at the same time? That seems like a lot of tapping buttons to switch back and forth. What about singing along together?
I contact sena with that question. I was explained that the one that is pair with the phone will be the only one in the phone call. When you answer the call the intercom communication/music is disconnected while you talk.
I know I’m very late to the party but just got a second smh 10 and when music is being shared between two headsets the music breaks up a lot and sounds like a scratched up CD. Please advise.
does this work through intercom or bluetooth, or more simply can I use this to share music with a friend on another motorcycle up to the intercom distance?
hi, i have a problem with music sharing. i have 2 smh5 for me and my girlfirend. both smh5 are on the same firmware and are connected togheter. intercom talking is fine, but when we utilise the music sharing feature the music gets interrupted al the time. please help :)
Hi there, I read in the comments below that two Sena SMH5 headsets can use music sharing, is this true? Also can we listen to the same music together and speak to each other at the same time? Thanks!
Thanks for the quick reply. So can we change between the settings on a SMH5 or SMH10 so that at some points we talk to one another (my pillion and I) and then others we listen to music? I understand that we can't start talking and the music will pause.
If you receive a phone call, can you add your passenger (via intercom) to the call so your caller, your passenger (or another rider with a sena) and you can talk all three together? SMH10R. Thanks.
I don't like to listen to music while I ride, especially someone else's crappy music, how do you deny music sharing? Or all I can do is just press the job button and keep pausing his pandora?
yes, pair Drive A to Driver B first. After you are in intercom mode, press the Jog dial/center button for 3 seconds to play music and the extra second to begin sharing with your intercom friend.
Sena my wife seldom listens to music, she wants to just use the intercom part. I want to stay connected with her but like the music when we are not talking at the time.
Oh yes of course. You can pair with your phone or music device, and connect to her over intercom. Then tap the jog dial/center button to switch to device mode of any 10 series sena, and if needed Hold the button for 2 seconds to play/pause the music. Then if you wish to speak with her tap the center button to jump back into intercom. She can do the same to you to jump over and speak with you. -Alyssa
***** From what I can tell nearly 6 months later this feature still does not work as of V5.1.1 on SMH10 and V1.3 on 20S.. I am happy to stand corrected but I cannot get this to work.. Share between 2 SMH10s fine... Share from 20s to SMH10 or vice versa is a complete fail...Is there a different procedure or confirmed still not to be working... ?
***** Hmmm so the SENA post above of 6 months ago indicating that this will be completed by the next firmware update has ballooned somewhat or has changed to only just possible? I own 6 SMH10s and bought the 20S for all the new great features however I am not in the position financially to change out my other 6 sets.. That would be a $2500 AUD exercise.. There is no real indicator in the manual (or from my dealer) that backwards compatibility was going to be an issue with certain functions.. So much for latest greatest.. :(
hey i use a sena smh 10, one of the contact pin on device is kinda lose now (dropped my lid). now the audio on the right ear piece kinda distorts (as if a there is a wire problem) is it okay if i fix it with a glue gun? would it damage it more..
you have to do this every time you boot the units..........UGH, c'mon SENA how about an update that makes this a bit mote simple.................Im going to have to write this down just to remember how to do it

I am having a hard time with this. Followed all the directions and even connected both devices to check the software. It says I have 5.1.1 on both devices and no window pops up to have me install any new firmware. Still, only one device will play music. Please help
It's a pain in the ass.......SENA are you listening? Go to the video and cue up music sharing with SHM 10. It will walk you through it and you have to do it every time you power up the headsets. start the video at 2:37 (step 5) where you pair the 2 headsets together, you have to do this even though the headsets may already be paired for intercom. Follow the directions to the end , make sure you take the step that states you must hear 2 rapid quiet beeps and you will get music in both headsets. Write it down cause there is no explanation in the quick guide sent in the box and the owners manual is useless. VERY inconvenient on the road.
i just spent 179 dollars each for Bell 9 helmets, then 300 dollars for a dual smh10 kit for the mag 9 helmets.. so, with tax... you do the match... yeah... 800 dollars... and it takes 5 minutes to pair them both to music... IF.. and only if you remember this elaborate set of steps, and dont screw it up... OMG... please tell me there is an easier way to use this product... I am so mad right now...
...haha!!! that my friend !! WELL, is what i mentioned some secs before in a separate comment, but you've mentioned the same 2years before .!! Such a complexity, Why SENA why?!!!!!
and my question.....are we RIDING FELLAS OR NOT.. sorry, but too much complexity. i have 2 sena 10C evo . if i need too many procedures just for my music... what can i say!!! , thank you SENA for saving my fuels..... ONCE AGAIN TOO MUCH COMPLEXITY, imagine if i want to combine all of my devices ( GARMIN GPS , PHONE , MUSIC / RADIO and communication) then we should better stay home. Make things easy. after all am wondering if i did well and bought them !!!
You guys make a great product, I bought one for me, my bro and a friend. Love it!

Now both of my Sena can share music!
Make sure you’re up to new version, that’s the only way it’ll work!
Excellent walk-through! Thanks
works perfectly on smh10r, thanks for sharing
Thank you so much ! Working as a charm :)
The opening Sena symbol just gave me a flashback of Sega
Please do a detail video on the product. I have bought this recently and did get the manual but would love it if i could see the demonstration. Sena 10S
Thank you so much, works perfect!
Sena, is it able to talk with sb(2 sets of SMH10) and in background play the music from phone at the same time?
Good video bro!
Thanks for the video but just one question please - so as I understand, if both headsets are sharing music, you can't talk to each other unless you press the button to open the intercom channel? If that's the case, that kinda sucks. Ideally all channels should be open so you can both listen to music and when one of you talks the music gets muted and then comes back when talking stops. This is how it works on my old wired Autocom system.
thanks for the info!
Thank you! Was struggling to play music from phone, turns out you need to pair them up different way than two intercoms, so confusing...
Should put that in the PDF! But really thanks for laying it out so well.........
Thanks dude!
great song selection!
Thank you. Its working great.
Just making sure.. once sharing music we no longer can talk to each other, until we hit the toggle once?
Correct
Question we use a gp10 to record out motovlog so if I start to share a music will that feature disconnect ?
Will this work with 2 Sena10 units, one that has the USB port and the other with the old-school adapter port (non-firmware updatable)?
Tried this method ytd, it works alright for a white but sometimes our helmet bumps and it snaps the smh10 out of the music sharing back to intercom, I have VOX turned off, any thoughts here?
two headphones are connected to each other is bound to hear the same music that plays both from the phone when they can talk with each other yet?
Yesterday I tried to use the intercom and one of the set heard me well but I can't heard the other person. I tried several time and nothing!! .Is something I doing wrong?
Hi, I can configure both headsets to hear music, but when I want both headsets to hear SmartPhone GPS turn by turn ONLY I cannot. Music plays and turn by turn on Google Maps plays over it.

Um? Can you share music and talk at the same time? That seems like a lot of tapping buttons to switch back and forth. What about singing along together?
will this work for a couple of sena 3s?
does this stream phone calls to both or just the main one? If I have a passenger I want them to hear the music but not the phone call.
I contact sena with that question. I was explained that the one that is pair with the phone will be the only one in the phone call. When you answer the call the intercom communication/music is disconnected while you talk.
I know I’m very late to the party but just got a second smh 10 and when music is being shared between two headsets the music breaks up a lot and sounds like a scratched up CD.
Please advise.
Will this work on the SMH5?
Can this be done with non sena headsets?
Can I do this with one smh10 and one smh5?
does this work through intercom or bluetooth, or more simply can I use this to share music with a friend on another motorcycle up to the intercom distance?
You need to set up the your friend sena with yours.
Can you do this with 3?
hi, i have a problem with music sharing. i have 2 smh5 for me and my girlfirend. both smh5 are on the same firmware and are connected togheter. intercom talking is fine, but when we utilise the music sharing feature the music gets interrupted al the time. please help :)
You ever get it fixed? What did you have to do????
Does this work if I'm using a 20s and my friend is using a smh 10?
***** wouls love to have this functionality between 20s and smh5 if possible! you rock sena
+Sena Was that firmware update ever released?
Hi there,
I read in the comments below that two Sena SMH5 headsets can use music sharing, is this true? Also can we listen to the same music together and speak to each other at the same time?
Thanks!
Thanks for the quick reply. So can we change between the settings on a SMH5 or SMH10 so that at some points we talk to one another (my pillion and I) and then others we listen to music? I understand that we can't start talking and the music will pause.
Perfect. Thanks a lot.
If you receive a phone call, can you add your passenger (via intercom) to the call so your caller, your passenger (or another rider with a sena) and you can talk all three together? SMH10R. Thanks.
Yes, please check the section in the User's Guide titled Intercom and Mobile Phone Call for the instructions on how to do that..
Thanks! I don't have it yet, wanted to make sure it was possible to do that, I was able to with a Scala Rider G4. Thanks again
(10U) I have to press the joystick for 1 second during intercom conversation in order for it to work.
Can this be done on sena s3 ?
step 12 confusing, where's the jog dial on sena 10u arai??
Did exactly as explained and still only one headset working for music.
WHEN I TRY THIS THE MUSIC (INTERNET RADIO) IS CUTTING IN AND OUT AT A REGULAR LIKE 1 SECOIND INTERVAL. ANY IDEA WHATS WRONG?
You ever get it figured out???? What steps did you take that helped you resolve your issue??? Thank you in advance for any advice.
I have a Sena 10s but it won't allow me to update the firmware, what should I do?
You ever get this figured out? What steps did you take to resolve your issue???
This should be possible with the navigation apps
I don't like to listen to music while I ride, especially someone else's crappy music, how do you deny music sharing? Or all I can do is just press the job button and keep pausing his pandora?
Can you pair the two together for intercom but only the drivers listen to music not the passenger
yes, pair Drive A to Driver B first. After you are in intercom mode, press the Jog dial/center button for 3 seconds to play music and the extra second to begin sharing with your intercom friend.
Sena my wife seldom listens to music, she wants to just use the intercom part. I want to stay connected with her but like the music when we are not talking at the time.

Sena thank you very helpful.
Can I share music with a 10s and a 20s?
Sena well why won't mines share music it always says music sharing then makes no noise
Only the 20s plays music the 10s is silent (the 20s is connected to the phone)
I've followed every step however only one of the headsets plays music
+Sena cheers, sorted it now. The firmware was 5.1 some reason it worked today
Can this be done between SMH10 and 20s?
***** From what I can tell nearly 6 months later this feature still does not work as of V5.1.1 on SMH10 and V1.3 on 20S.. I am happy to stand corrected but I cannot get this to work..

can sena smh10r share music on 3 head sets?
+Sena thank you.
What firmware should be downloaded?
The latest firmware should be downloaded and installed onto the headset using the Sena Device Manager.
Thank you very much....it works great
hey i use a sena smh 10, one of the contact pin on device is kinda lose now (dropped my lid). now the audio on the right ear piece kinda distorts (as if a there is a wire problem) is it okay if i fix it with a glue gun? would it damage it more..
you have to do this every time you boot the units..........UGH, c'mon SENA how about an update that makes this a bit mote simple.................Im going to have to write this down just to remember how to do it
