I like that I can hear all but the quietest captains with both earpieces in place given that we don't use the hot mic very often at my airline
Lightweight over traditional passive "muff" style headsetBoom mic stays right where I put itJust loud enough everything maxed for Lear 35 cockpit
For best noise reduction result, make sure the seal is good, and turn on ANR when noise is at its highest (at least after engine has started).The mic works well, but it will just cover half of my mouth as its arm is short.

I considered Bose and Sennheiser, as well as the U Fly Mic conversion
Outstanding product, and much more comfortable than the over the ear design
If I have enough things in my cockpit bag to not allow the headset, the hard plastic D-rings allow me to use a carabiner to clip it to my bag - no issues there
DC has a great product and the noise reduction is perfect.
I’ve been a Bose fan in my private plane for years, great product no doubt......however since flying the Airlines and wearing a headset all day I decided to lighten up a bit
This product far superior in workmanship, sound quality, bluetooth with autosiliencing capability to listen to ATC, not that it's allowed
It feels very comfortable wearing for 8 hours or more and it does a good job with noise cancellation
It is lightweight, compact and does a wonderful job of quieting the cockpit of the company King Air.
It's lightweight, comfortable and the ANR does a good job quieting down what is normally a really noisy flight deck
I am an ERJ-145 pilot and it does a superb job canceling out the white noise in its rather loud cockpit, and it is comfortable enough to wear for 5-8 hours a day with no problem

Some nice features is the ability to to set the volume independent of each ear and also the instant cutout feature of radio transmissions when listening to Blue Tooth.
This feature is useful if phone communications are required in a noise ramp with a GPU or APU running
The bluetooth is a great feature; the only issue is that everyone on the intercom will hear you when making cell phone calls.
As far as noise attenuation is concerned when the noise canceling feature is turned off -- essentially there is none as could be expected from an on ear headset
, the is some passive noise reduction, enough that it is difficult to hear the guy/gal next to you.-Head and ear cushions are good for me for 5 hours of continuous wear.-The case that comes with the headset is the standard DC case
The passive noise cancellation isn't quite as good as my regular over-the-ear DCs, but it's pretty good for an on-ear headset
With the combination of Passive and ANR noise reduction, this headset creates a very quite environment
Cons:-The passive noise reduction is mediocre, leading me to conclude that OVERALL noise reduction of the Bose is better than the Pro-X.-Comfort; this is where I give this headset the biggest hit
I like quiet, so Bose A20's excellent Active Noise Reduction really appealed to me.
