    Every time I go to buy wired intercoms, the players have changed. Are we doing David Clark these days? Or Piratecom?
    Looking for 4 place system and would like to integrate VHF for captain if possible. Stereo audio would be a bonus.

    That would be disrespectful to the people trying to listen to my dry exhaust.

    Still won't work.

    See, my passengers ask a lot of questions. I don't want everybody to hear the answers all the time.
    For example:
    Passenger (Screaming): "IS THAT AN OFFSHORE BOAT?!?!"
    Me (Screaming): "NOT REALLY. JUST STYLED LIKE ONE."
    Guy on Powerquest: "HEY!"

    It's a 6'x6' cockpit with nowhere to go.

    Wouldn't wireless require some kind of battery or charging? Seems like wireless would be subject to greater chance of interference also.

    I don't want to change batteries or charge headsets.

    Okay, the guys at Skater say either David Clark or Comzilla.

    Follow-up:

    I asked for quotes from Comzilla, Setcom and David Clark.

    Setcom responded first with a design I didn't like and a price I hated.
    Comzilla responded within two days with a design I love at a really competitive price. (About half the cost of Setcom.)
    No word from David Clark.

    Seriously leaning toward Comzilla. Maybe immediately.
