I installed one of these 6 years ago. It's performed without a glitch ever
since. Great unit.

PS. Panel mount. No question. Just get the most minimal system that meets
all of your requirements. Mine: 4-place, stereo, aux audio input. I don't
like listening to music in the air. It just somehow seems wrong. But,
isolate the passengers from the pilot and they jam away and are much more
tolerant of longer trips.

Thanks for the great feedback and some of the colourful comments from
everyone ;-)
I understand your thoughts on hearing problems. (Just ask my wife) But this
isn't just a problem from flying.
I actually own a Flightcom Blackhawk 5DX headset and used it on a trip years
ago... (Jay does that count towards not being the last pilot in the world to
use a headset? :-) .. I found it to be not so bad in the cruise but every
time I went to takeoff or land I felt more confident with them off. Then I
couldn't be bothered using them, and of course without an intercom it's a
bit unsociable with the passengers.
After looking at the likes of Thomas, Jay, and Dave's posts I think the
right thing is to spend a little more and get something better. The PS units
do look good and it seems they have some excellent features
In the mean time I will have to dust the Flightcom's off and go do circuits
until I get use to them.

Many thanks guys

Stephen,

No offense, but that's not really a "good" headset. It's about as cheap
as you can go.

Any thoughts, experiences would be appreciated.

You may want to look at Jim Weir's RST Engineering products.
I have been using one of his two-place, kit built intercoms for 25 years.
His kits have excellent, easy to use instructions.
