Was thinking the custom mold ear piece would be more comfortable then those David Clark's, & provide more hearing protection then the Telex 750.
I'm open to suggestions, and looking for a headset that I can also use on the B737/M88/B717 since I'll likely end up on one of those fleets. Thanks.

I have the Telex 850 noise cancellation headset. The ear cushions are much better than the 750 (feels like gel) and the noise reduction feature always generates a "Wow" from the captains who try my headset.
