When a buddy of mine was on active duty, he let me use his bose headsets.
They are great headsets! Light weight. Comfortable. Flexible. Quiet. The only bad part is they cost $1000. Personally, I own a pair of noise cancelling Pilot headsets. They weight a few more ounces. They are as quiet as the Bose. The only real difference is they are $350 instead of $100!!

Personally, it is not worth the money unless you are making lots of money, and have money to spend.

No matter which headsets you choose, I would recommend with all my might that you buy noise cancelling headsets. Those are worth the extra money!!!
