Which headset do you use?
I got my headset when I first started flying years ago. I didn't really care at the time if it was nice or not. Now that it's sat on my head for 1000ish hours I'm starting to hate putting it on every day. So, which ones do you all use out there? I was thinking this one....The ANR one The Pilot Shop - FlightCom Denali Headsets
Any suggestions?!?!

Bose X is my second set. The other day I forgot them at home and had to put borrow a cheap pair from the flight school and I will never forget my Bose again. David Carks as my first pair... Not too bad for the first hour, but I don't think i'll use anything besides my Bose unless something better comes out

I had a set of the flightcom denali non anr. The microphone on this thing is probably the best on the market. I even had ATC at different airports ask me what headset i was using a couple times. This is nice for your instructor, but not the number one thing about a headset.
Above all, this is not the most comfortable headset on the block. Especially with the ANR version, there is no reason to clamp it on, but these do. Ok for a short flight, but nothing above 1 hr. I'd get many others on the market before this one...X's X11's, Zulu's.

In my search for "Headset Nirvana" I've tried many, the Bose X was pretty good but I have been very impressed with the "Clearly Aloft" "in ear" headset. You don't know you're wearing it. I got it at Sporty's, they'll let you try it for a couple months and return it if it's not for you.
If you don't mind an in ear type headset, you should like this.
