Bose Headsets

No Jack... You have a 3 way partnership and I'm only in a 2 person one
(so I pay more)... So you should have way way way more money than me...

Plus I thought that everyone that lived in California was rich... Am I
mistaken? :-)

Thanks Dan... I am hoping that I won't be disappointed... Guess if I
am then I can return them under the 30 day try for free thing... You
also gotta love the no-interest-spread-the-pain-over-a-year deal they
offer too.... Heck I **** away $82 a month on BS stuff... I'll never
miss it...

So Jon...if you won't miss it, send me .082 AMUs per month for 12 months

Ah...but you see, you can afford a 2-way partnership, I can only afford
a 3-way partnership...so you have more money you can spend on aviation.

Plus I thought that everyone that lived in California was rich... Am I
mistaken? :-)

Um...yes. :-)

I just broke down and ordered a Bose Aviation Headset X. I have been
wanting one for several years but 1 AMU is a lot of cash for a headset...
Then I remembered how deaf I am becomming adnd thought that

Spelling is deteriorating, too :~)

this would be the best protection for my non-renewable hearing.

I already have a set of David Clarks H20 10XL's and they work great so if
the Bose work better than I'll be tickled pink.

How many of you good folks fly with the Bose or have used them and give me
a PIREP. Thanks!!

I've had mine for four years and can sum it up this way: Expensive. Worth
it. The clearest audio you'll find and perhaps the only headset that doesn't
make it feel that your head is in a vice.

I couldn't agree more. The only derog is the new power control module.
I needed new ear cusions and decided to update my headset with the new
electronics. The new setup is smaller has auto-shutoff which was
missing on the original. It has split volume control knobs which do
not have any sort of drag to keep them from accidentally turning. I
find that as the power module gets bumped about the volume knobs start
moving around. It may seem like a small thing, but is quite anoying.
For the price they ask, they could have done a better job.

Regards,
Jerry

Best investment I've made in aviation! Light, comfortable and work
great.

An alternative might be: http://www.uflymike.com/ I've heard some
good things about them.... 1/2 the cost.

I have two pair now and get nervous every time I park my aircraft outside
the protection of a locked T-hangar.

But seriously, as a one-time owner of two Lightspeed headsets with about
450 hours between them and about 500 hours on my Bose, I can attest to the
quality, comfort, ANR performance, mic performance, and quality (did I type
that already?) of the Bose over the Lightspeed.

You will not be disappointed.

I've had mine for a year now and have really loved them so far.
My wife and I just flew out to Austin and back and she was finding
her Telex set unconfortable (like ouch! after 5 hours of flying.
That's a lot more than she's used to and she now understands
why I spent the $$$ for the Bose.

I do some flight instruction as well as fly forestry patrol and
believe me, no matter how much you love your headset, it will
start hurting after 4 hours or so while the Bose is still comfortable.
