The QC2/uflymike combo will set you back $525, (225 for the uflymike and 300 for the QC2) brand new. Very small case, so portability is excellent. I normally fly 4-5 hour legs and I've never worn a headset as comfortable. There is NO clamping pressure and the noise reduction is excellent.

I use the Telex 5x5 pro III with a custom ear mold. It works great, pretty reasonably priced too. The only complaint I have, which I talked to telex about with no solution is the audible warnings are kind of loud when you have a custom ear mold. Other than that I have been pretty happy with it. My dad also has had one for the last 10+ years with no complaints. Any questions feel free to PM

OscarOscar,

I'm a bit lazy, how much does the Bose conversion/boom mic cost. Guys that have it, like it.

Thx,

FF

ps. I may be off base because I never flew the CRJ, but I have used the Telex 750s and they work fine in all the jets I've flown...fwiw.

I knew someone who took care of the loud warning by ripping a basic foam ear plug apart and stuffing just enough of it in the tube to lower the volume.

Use the Telex 850. Light weight doesn't take up much room in the flight bag. I use this headset in the 74, but I used it in the CRJ before. Just the right amount of noise cancellation.

Ive tried a few things similiar like cotton balls, but then it kind of muffles the sound. I'll deal with the loudness for now.
