But I'm not certain. I just want a product that's flexible, so I can use it on different fleets. 
Sorry for the scare.

Telex 850 worked great on the 737 except for 2-3 aircraft that for some reason caused a squealing feedback. Pros: doesn't need batteries, cheaper than most ANR's
Cons: I found myself constantly pulling the left earcup off so I could hear the CA. So now ill have skin cancer on my right, and be deaf in my left ear :-)

I'd still much prefer an rj style intercom any day over the one ear on and one ear off system we use on the MDs and Boeing's. But hey, it's how they did it in the 50s so by golly that's how we ought to do it in 2013.

We used the intercom in the deafening C-5. I kept trying to use it in the 88 sims. I didn't like the ear off method either.
Well if there's any wonder on why we still have the 737 cockpit and no hot mics:

Not sure if you could find anyone to do this for you now. I think on the Telex 750's, you could just cut the wire on the side you want to disconnect. But on my Plantronics headset, I think the Headset Dr. had to do something special (some extra part he had to install?) to do this without killing the audio in both sides. If I ever have to get another one, I may be out of luck on getting this done again.
