Airbus Headset?
Hi all- new guy to the forum just hired onto the A320- been looking through the threads to find headset recommendations and haven't been able to draw a strong conclusion. What do y'all use?
Looking at either the Telex 850's or just grabbing a used 750 off ebay and replacing the ear and mic covers... any other ideas? Got scared off of using the ship sets from some buddies, and also told the Bose A20s I have are way overkill. Didn't want to drop 500$ on a brand new pair of ANR phones either. (I'm cheap like that)
Thanks in advance!

Thank you.
