Xxx,
Thousand-dollar sets really are better than $250 sets. That's not the question. The question is: Are they 750-$-better? And that's up to the individual to decide. It's anything but clear-cut. -- Thomas Borchert (EDDH) |

I have a pair of Sennheiser HMEC 300's that I've had for about a year now.
They are the only ANR headphones I've had, but I tried a pair of Lightspeeds that another pilot in our club had, and I think these are just as comfortable. That is, not as nice as bose, but not bad. Another guy who has flown with Lightspeed's for a long time thinks the Sennheiser's are quieter. The construction seems solid, no plastic parts to break. They use batteries pretty quickly, but I plug them into the cigarette lighter so that's not a problem. I've been happy with them. Brad wrote in message oups.com... Hello everyone. I have been flying with a regular headphone (passive noise reduction) and have been considering buying an ANR headphone as soon as I get my private license. I would like to ask what types of tips people who have used them have and also whether I will really have to spend $500+ for a headset. I know the Bose costs $995 and that is out of my range. I saw a GCA (Gulf Coast Avionics) ANR for about $250. Has anyone tried these? Are they good or will I be better off with some other one? Any suggestions will be appreciated. Thanks, Alex Vasconcelos |
