I tried the latest and great DC anr headsets and really liked them a lot. Unfortunately the environment I fly in is probably louder then any of you encounter. It overloaded the ANR on both the new DC and older Lightspeed headsets I tried.
I broke down and tried the new Bose A20's and they could handle the ridiculous noise inside my cargo Beech 99 with the jump door open and the cockpit windows open. They were my last choice because of cost. (They were just out of my price range, and I'm super cheap.)
So I took advantage of their payment plan. I thoroughly love them and people don't even know I'm in a plane during Bluetooth phone calls. Only thing I'm not a super huge fan of is that have to plug in to the controller to play music. It does not do it via Bluetooth like the DC's and Lightspeeds.
I still recommend trying on the new DC's. The price is right and they sound great. Very happy with my A20's though.
