I just upgraded to the Bose A-20. I love them. If you happen to have a Bose X tryouts into trading it in. I just got $425 for mine and Bose also offers a discount if you happen to keep your CFI current.
Just flew with the Bose A-20--wow! I can actually hear what ATC is saying now. HUGE improvement over even the "nice" Telex model, much less the basic. Appreciate all the dialogue and suggestions.
