Personally, I'm very satisfied with my (two) LightSpeed 20XL headsets.
Comfy and quiet, IMHO.

You are probably aware of this but just in case...any headset's ability to
filter out noise will depend to a great deal on how good a seal the earcups
make. With the LightSpeed ANRs, at least, if you have sunglasses with big,
thick ear-pieces (whatever those things that go back and sit on your ears
are called), you won't get a good seal, and the ANR won't work well. The
same thing will happen if you just don't get a good seal for any other
reason. I use sunglasses that are held on with a little elastic string, so
the earcups seal nicely, but most sunglasses work fine as long as you're
careful about how you seal the earcups.

Hope that helps.

Hello,

I'm looking for an headset.
I've tryed an Lightspeed 20XL in an Motor Glider
and couldn't find it that silent I espect.
I tryed the good Quality passive Headset of the
other pilot and couldn't find it noticeable louder,
he tested mine and had the same opinion.
The cockpit communication sounded bether with
the Lightspeed but without ANR the Lightspeed
was louder.
I have no change to compare much headsets, has
somebody done?
I've also red some reviews in the net, but found
no real comparison.
