What an interesting gaggle of replies...For those who own David Clarks, what model? I'm still trying to find a pretty good balance between cost and quality.

The ones I own have to be at least 20 years old. Still work though.

Go with the David Clarkes, hands down the best bang for your buck.

Bose. Noise cancelling. No other way to go. 

H10-13S is the one I have.

For budget minded pilots who want over-the-ear noise cancelling headsets there is also this choice, some swear by them:

Wow that sure is a lot of "look at me" gold. Does it really offer any advantage?

 

 

Does it really offer any advantage?

Do they claim it does??

Haha, good point! I don't see anything that says it gives any advantage, just some ads screaming 24K GOLD PLATED. Will give those some thought however as it looks like they have a model that's a little less showy. Thanks for the heads up.

If you get them and like/dislike them post your feedback here. It looks like you can return them in 30 days.

If you get some other headsets - post your opinion too.

With all due respect I wouldn't us the word "Bose" and "budget" in the same thread

 

I'm not questioning the quality though...
