I’m curious too. I have a lemo plug headset and airbus adapter, but the one jumpseat jack I tried it on, power didn’t come through to the headset, not sure if it works for anyone... this was with a Lightspeed...

Use it, love it, works as advertised. DC Pro X. Only 1 flight in hundreds has ever had a plug that didn't work, and it just didn't have power. Still had coms, but none of the noise cancelling or bluetooth for "calls to dispatch." That was a fun call to MX control..."a what is broken? What is that?"

I'm with on this. I have the Bose ProFlight Series 2. I haven't had a plane where there was a problem with the plug as of yet. I carry a couple batteries in case it does happen. With the ProFlights you can put the batteries in and ANC/Bluetooth will work fine.
If the entire plug is boogered, I can use ship headsets. They sell a converter to go from from the 5 pin to the GA, I haven't gotten it yet.

I have it for my A20s and haven’t had an issue for the past two years with the plugs. I can tell you that it’s amazing not having to change batteries every other trip. It’s the best purchase I’ve ever made. I guarantee it you’ll love it too.

I still think a pair of noise canceling headphones plus a microphone adapter is the way to go.
It will cost you $500-$600, which is well and truly cheaper than the majority of high-end aviation headsets, and has a dual purpose.
Most people these days have a pair of noise canceling headphones. That percentage rises considerably if you spend lots of time on airplanes.
So why not get a single item that can fill two purposes? Having a great pair of headphones for commutes/deadheads/vacation and then a mic for work.
