When I was ait Pacific Coast Avionics buying my headsets
(http://www.pca.aero), I asked about what difference I could expect
between the Twenty-3G and the Thirty-3G. For a C-152/172, they couldn't
give me any info. I called lightspeed and talked to one of their
techies. He was straight up with my and saved me about $100-120 by
telling me that the Thirty-3G would be better if you are flying a
noisier airplane (like a C-210 Centurion, etc) and that the smaller
planes, like the 150/152/172/182 would be fine with just a Twenty-3G.
That was his personal opinion. Having now used the Twenty-3G, I am
thinking it would have been nice to bought the more expensive one, just
because. Note, I have NO complaints about my Twenty-3G and, as
others have said, I LOVE the Lightspeed customer service. It's nice
that I drive by their corp HQ every day. grin Btw, Pacific Coast
Avionics was pretty good to me as well and their prices are decent. I
drive by them, too. Ahh, thank God for living in Oregon (even if
our legislators are cracked up on meth and we have nutzoids trying to
cripple our state government).

I found that the Bose and Lightspeeds 30-3Gs were pretty close in sound
and
fit for my liking. The Bose were lighter and did not have the cell phone
interface or the MPS/CD player interface as did the LightSpeeds. I
wanted the cell phone interface so I could have the ability to call from
on the ground.


This is a rarely mentioned asset of the Lightspeed headsets. When I bought
Twenty 3Gs, I thought "Pah! What will I ever use *that* for?"

Well, it turns out that I use it a lot. The ability to plug your cell phone
into your headset, giving you crystal-clear sound even with the engine roar,
is really nice.

Now if only it worked in the air...
