Bose A30 Aviation Headset with Bluetooth, Lightweight Comfortable Design, Adjustable ANR and Noise Cancelling [LEMO (6 pin)] – Black

Best GA headset. Never bought the A20's because they used to clamp my larger head. These are great. Suck up the price and buy a pair if you're flying piston aircraft. Your older you will appreciate having not to wear a hearing aid when you're 70. Enjoy!

I bought this for my daughter and this is her review: I'm a student pilot working toward my Private with less than 10 hours, and I'm currently training in a C-172. I've spent enough time with this headset to rate it 5 stars. The earphone sound and mic quality is phenomenal, and the ANR works amazing (if you remember to turn it on!). The headset is lightweight so I forget I'm wearing it, which I am especially grateful for as someone with a sensitive head. I will say though, practicing stalls and flying out of my seat so much caused the headset to press down and hurt the top of my head a bit, but I think this could be easily fixed by slightly adjusting it's position. Practicing stalls was the only time I had any issue. This is the first aviation headset I've owned so the only other headset I can compare it to is a much cheaper one I borrowed from my flight school for my discovery flight, and I think the Bose A30 is way better and definitely worth the splurge. As the saying goes, buy once cry once! I can safely say I have no complaints about the Bose A30 and I absolutely recommend it to anyone looking for an aviation headset.

Si los piensas comprar es porque ya sabes lo buenos que son. No hay más que explicar

As an airline pilot I have to say, it is really a game changer.

What people need to understand is that this wasn’t created to replace the A20 (which I own) . Great aviation headset over all, but it is totally redundant to buy this headset if you already own a pair of A20s and are looking to upgrade. This is a minor update over the A20, and to be honest Im not quite sure if they are better (noice cancelation is about the same, sometimes I feel the A20s are quieter, mic is a little bit better on the A30s). I needed an extra headset for passengers so I gave the A30 a shoot (They work as expected, can’t complain). In conclusion, if you own a pair of A20s and think the A30 are the next big thing (they are not), If you don’t have any ANC headset, then this will be a good choice because they just work, and finally if you’re looking for a extra pair of headset the A30s will be a nice add on!!

I've been on a few flights with it and the noise canceling is unbelievable. Mic is very flexible and holds it's shape. The bluetooth is flawless. I let some people try it after I paired it with my phone. They were all amazed by the noise canceling. This is my first aviation headset so I can't compare it to others, but good lord I love it!

Excellent product but the vendor delivery is poor they do not follow the delivery instructions, left my delivery at neighbor's door. Should have been in Mail Box. I have complained to Amazon Customer Service

BrieflyI gave it 1 star because the product did not work as it should. At least the manufacturer should indicate "Not for helicopters"Details:I am a professional helicopter pilot and the A20 is part of my life. I have two now, one built into my helmet, and one for free wear.I read all the reviews before buying and honestly did not really believe in the negative ones. As soon as I got the A30, I jumped into the helicopter for 7 hours of work.The first impressions were very positive; I liked the non-slip plastic on the new battery compartment, the thin cable, and less pressure on the ears. Noise cancellation worked well.The first negative impression came after the first radio conversations. The sound of the ATC seemed very "dry", unnatural. I would say that the sound frequency range is shifted to the top (high frequencies prevail). In reality, I think this is the peculiarity of the digital processor.The worst thing happened later. At some point, the right earphone started making a Bang-bang-bang sound. It was very loud. Not only couldn't I hear the ATС, but it also was hitting my eardrum hard. It looks like the digital noise cancellation picked up some vibration or sound or both and started autoresonance. I tried for 20 minutes to fix it; I tried moving the headphones on my head, pressing them harder, but nothing helped. Eventually, I had to turn off the noise cancellation and continue the flight without it. It's good that there was no tense radio communication when this happened. Imagine that you went deaf because of a Bang-bang-bang somewhere in B airspace or were working in close proximity to other aerocrafts. It’s really not safe.
