Question Headset for KA200???

Hi all,

What headset will be best to use in KA200,
as far as noise reduction, comfortable fit, clearer reception, etc.

Thanks very much.

If you got $1000, yup. I wore my DC 13.4's and thought it was fine also. Just depends on your budget. I'm currently looking at getting a Clarity Aloft. Bang for the buck, I like it, and it's ridiculously light.

I have to agree the Bose X is the best. I have had Sennheiser, Lightspeed ANR's and nothing comes close to the X's.

If you are a CFI you may still get a discount. I know Bose for quite some time ran a discount to CFI's for the X's. That may have passed but was the case a year or 2 ago. Call them and find out if it applies to you.

I would have to agree that the Bose x are the best. I have the headset and it's sweet. I tried a set of lightspeeds and they're nice but I like the X the best. they're the lightest and quietest i think. Good luck. there is a payment plane with them too for $80-90 a month for a year.

I'll agree Bose is the BEST! I've had mine for about a year and a half now and love them. BTW if you order them through a Bose store, they sometimes have offers for 24 months 0% intrest. That's what I did.

David Clark makes a NC headset thats about $800 something...a little cheaper than Bose, but I am happy with my DC 13-8's bought them for $150. Noise Canceling would be nice though....
