Description
The JAL PRO-COM headset is the perfect way to communicate, listen to music and take telephone calls whilst driving your Caterham 7.
The PRO-COM headset is a self contained, self powered headset that has been designed for high noise environments. It offers state of the art electronic noise filtering coupled together with an extremely high-quality noise cancelling microphone.
Headsets can be worn on their own or simply plug two together for two way intercom. You will be able to hear and transmit clear signals even in the harshest environment.
PRO-COM – No other headset has all of these features:
- Microphone: Aviation/military grade waterproof electronic noise cancelling mic with flexible boom and large sponge wind muff.
- Sound Quality: Superb high quality stereo sound.
- Comfort: Headset does not squeeze your head and has been designed for hours of constant use.
- Ear Defenders: Twin skinned super soft gel ear defenders that cut out up to 3 times more ambient noise than other headsets.
- Side Tone: Side Tone is a feature where some of your own voice is fed back into your headset and gives you an indication that your microphone is working, how loud you are speaking and that your call is connected. This eliminates the need to shout and transmits a clear audio transmission.
- PMR – Private Mobile Radio: Designed to work with virtually any PMR radio. Also allows the use of 2 PMR radios at once.
- Muting circuit: If you are listening to music, telephone or second radio and the MASTER radio receives a signal then the other devices will automatically mute.
- Tandem Intercom: Connect two JAL PRO-COM headsets together for tandem use as a driver to passenger intercom. No need for a separate intercom box.
- Bluetooth: Available in both Bluetooth, (for music and telephone calls), and Non-Bluetooth versions.
- Ease of Use: PTT (Push To Talk) and digital volume dial built onto the headset.
- Rechargeable Battery: 60+ hours battery life (typically 100 hours) using NiMh battery packs (no memory effect).

PRO-COM – Quality is the driving force.
As with all things there are cheap and high-end headsets on the market today. One of the main reasons some headsets can seem expensive is the quality of the components used. For example, the microphone used on a PRO-COM headset costs upwards of £65 + VAT on it’s own! It’s expensive, but the performance and build quality are exceptional.
You can buy cheap microphones for a few pounds, but they will give you poor audio quality that you can barely hear. A PRO-COM microphone is tuned to perfection, plus it is waterproof and has anti-popping circuitry.
Like many microphones the PRO-COM features noise cancelling technology, but we’ve gone one better with the addition of NRC – Noise Reducing Circuitry. This ensures that the PRO-COM produces high quality audio in the harshest environments.
So, can you just fit a good microphone on a cheap headset? Afraid not, you also need really good speakers. PRO-COM speakers are titanium coated and use the highest quality diaphragms, together with many other features they always re-produce excellent audio.
These are just a few examples of components used in a JAL PRO-COM headset.

The Headset is really F-A-N-T-A-S-T-I-C! To all Caterham owners and 7 enthousiatics, buy this headphone and lift your ride in your toy to the next level. First you protect your ears from wind noise. I ride also a motorbike and then it is common to wear ear protection. I plan to drive the Caterham to France, Italy, Spain,…you really need earprotection. Even on shorter trips you must protect your ears. You cannot imagine the damage you do to your ears. Second when you put on your headphone there is the calmness that overwhelms you. All little noises from your car, and in a Caterham there are a lot, are away! You hear your engine sound in a smooth and pleasant way.
On top of this with the bluetooth function you can listen to spotify or the radio or your own playlist. You enjoy your ride even more. There is a phonecall? No problem: with your hands on your steeringwheel the headset takes automatically your call. You can hear very clearly and also the caller can understand you very good, even at high speed. Unbelievable better then in my car. The caller hangs up and the headset turns again to radio, playlist,…
Last but not least, in my case, I protect my self from taking a cold. I am very sensitive for this. because your ears are always covered, there is no wind, cold or not, that enters your ears and can provoce health problems.
It is also very easy to set the volume. Luckily the producers of the headset put a real turningknob to set the volume. No digital pushers. Much easier to set while driving!
You think the price is high: it is absolute NOT. Every penny worth!

I have used the JAL PRO-COM Bluetooth headset whilst blatting in my Caterham both with full screen and aeroscreen. The outstanding feature of the headset is the simplicity, easy set up out of the box, plug into my Baofeng PMR, switch on and go. The mobile phone integration pairs seamlessly and voice quality across the radio or phone is very good.
Other positives include: Great build quality and robust components; I liked the portability, and no need to leave in the car when parked up; the headset fits well and remains secure even when blatting at speed.
There are a couple minor negatives: Wind noise when blatting enthusiastically with aero screen and half doors is noticeable to others on the channel, although I’m yet to try a headset where this is not the case. A thicker windsock or muffler may resolve this? With the Caterham windscreen and side screens fitted there is minimal wind noise. I’d also add the PTT extension cable rather than use the PTT button on the headphone as I prefer to keep my hand near the gear lever and steering wheel.
In summary, a great product and well worth considering if you are looking for a comms kit for car to car chat, or simply for phone and music integration whilst on the move.
