Headset recommendations
I'm looking for a new headset of higher quality (not the cheap ones, nor the
most expensive ones), with passive noise reduction (for GA aircraft). Can anybody give me a recommendation and his/hers experiences with this headset? Thanks Triple Delta |

DeltaDeltaDelta,
Hmm. If you look for a "new headset of higher quality", it should probably be active. But anyway: A very good passive is the Lightspeed QFR Solo or Supersolo, for about 135 and 190 $ respectively. The latter is probably for comfortable to wear. The active variant of the headset starts at 275 or so. IMHO, you should spring for an active 20XL2, which is 380 or so. Excellent value, very comfortable, and the active reduction makes one hell of a difference. Try before you buy! -- Thomas Borchert (EDDH) |

I have a Sigtronics S-40 and a Peltor 7004. I got them both on EBay at
reasonable prices. The Sigtronics is now my "passenger headset" - I REALLY like the Peltor. The sigtronics isn't bad either. But the Peltor is compact, comfy, quiet, and responsive. I like it alot.
