E170/175's and headsets
I was recently hired at Republic on the 170/175. I am doing research on in-ear headsets, as I use the Clarity Aloft for GA flying, and love the in-ear style. I'd like to have separate headsets for 121 and GA flying. Currently, I am sold on the "Regional Jet Package" headset from pilotstuff.com (Link: The Regional Jet Package from PilotStuff.com). I heard that Ejet cockpits are noisy. Does anyone who flies the Ejet have a recommendation on an in-ear headset? Does anyone that owns this "RJ Package" have any reviews/advice? There are no decent reviews from Ejet pilots that I could find. Also, the headset does not need to be TSO'd. Thanks!

Why do you want separate headsets? If you're already happy with the Clarity Aloft and don't need a change, you should stick with it.
The E170/175 is not nearly as loud as the E145s were, but down low it is still quite noisy. Over about FL300 it starts to quiet down quite a bit. I have used the Telex 5x5 with RJ package in the both the 175 and the 145. All day comfort and hearing protection, just like what you use now.
