I use the Telex 5x5 with custom ear molds. No headband, no big ear cups or pieces. Comfortable, featherweight, and you can wear a hat and sunglasses with big bands and no problems. It takes up about as much room in your kitbag as a granola bar.

I ordered the whole setup from this company:

www.averysound.com

If you call Avery Sound, ask for John Meyer. He knows how to set up the headset for the (LOUD) Emb 135-145's from getting feedback from other pilots.

Im not plugging the company... im just passing on a good advice that I got from other pilots.
