Description

No matter why you fly, the Bose A20 Aviation Headset is engineered to improve the experience. It provides 30% greater noise reduction than conventional aviation headsets, which helps you stay focused on your flying. It provides clear audio with active equalization. And its minimal clamping force makes even your longest flights more comfortable. Designed for aircraft owners who prefer an installed, aircraft powered headset, the 6-pin self-latching plug is inserted into the panel connector of an installed wire harness. The headset's full range of features include a high-performance electret microphone with a Bluetooth audio and communications interface, auto-on (when using aircraft power), customizable audio prioritization control with “mute” and “mix” settings and simple, intuitive operation for plug-and-fly convenience. You can choose the left or right ear cup to connect the mic. The A20 headset is certified to FAA TSO C139 standards. It's among the lightest of all active noise cancelling headsets, with a weight of just 12 ounces. No other headset offers this unique combination of features and benefits. AA batteries and dual G/A plugs optional.

    • One of the best aviation headsets
Color: Black Size: Dual Plug Style: A20
It was time to replace my 20+ year old David Clark's, and I was torn between going with the DC ONE X or the Bose A20. I've been a loyal DC customer for a long time, and their products never let me down, plus the DC's are roughly 25% less expensive. But I've also flown with Bose, and they've always impressed me with the amazing Bose noise suppression. In the end, since I needed a pair of headsets, I ended up buying one of each - and so far, I have no regrets about either purchase. If you're in this position too, I thought I'd offer a comparison of these two terrific products...to me, there's no clear hands down winner here - each headset is good at different things. Indeed, both are amazing in their own right, and the good news is that this means you can't go wrong with either one, especially if you're like me and are upgrading from older technology. In terms of overall construction quality, I'd give a slight edge to DC. Both are very good and should hold up a long time, but the Bose feel like high-end consumer products, while the DC's feel "professional". Although the Bose are slightly lighter, the DC's are quite a bit more compact with a smaller control pod. The Bose case is larger, but more protective. Both products pair easily with Bluetooth phones/tablets, and I've had no connectivity issues with my iPhone or iPad. I don't like that both products make it difficult to access the optional features like auto-off and stereo/mono. Granted these tend to be "set and forget" options, but in both products, you need to pop open the battery compartment and remove the batteries to change these settings. Speaking of batteries, I use lithium batteries in my headsets, and both seem to provide better battery life than you might think - at least 50 hours. In terms of comfort, there's no clear winner. To me, the DC's feel smaller but less secure on my head - in turbulence and with thicker sunglasses on, they sometimes slide around on my head, no matter how I adjust them. The Bose have larger ear cups that tend to feel more secure, although they also tend to make me feel a little sweaty in warm weather. In smooth air, the DC's are more comfortable to me, but I don't like the sense that they might shift on my head if I move too quickly. As for overall sound quality, both are good, but to my ears, the DC's are slightly clearer with voice communications. I think the better noise suppression in the Bose does interfere slightly with audio legibility, and sometimes I find myself struggling with ATC communications that seem to come through more clearly on the DC. I find the microphones to be a tie - I've never had less than a "loud and clear" response on any com check, and they work equally well with my phone or with the airplane. Of course, the reason you spend big bucks on a headset like this is for the noise suppression, and here is where the Bose headsets excel. Although the DC's are quite good, the Bose are simply better. Sometimes I'll switch from one or the other in flight, and the difference is immediately obvious. On the other hand, if you didn't have them side by side, you'd probably find either one to be more than good enough - but if you fly in a really loud environment and want the best possible noise suppression, then the Bose is the winner in this regard. I'm happy to say that both are made in the USA, and both companies have good customer service. DC especially has really impressed me over the years...I once had a ten year old headset repaired (I crushed the cord), and they came back with new ear seals, headband pads and so on - all at zero charge to me. Bottom line is that I'm happy with the Bose A20's and if you're looking for the best aviation headset that will have maximum noise suppression in a noisy cockpit, then you can't go wrong with the Bose - although in my opinion, they aren't the only game in town. ... show more

    • They’re basically perfect.
Color: Black Size: Dual Plug Style: A20
I bought these as a student pilot, mostly because the pair the school let me use was horrible and I wanted something that was better quality. I already had Bose headphones for my computer and for gaming, so I knew quality wasn’t a concern with Bose. These headphones are very comfortable to wear. Even on the hot days it’s not bad at all with their leather ear cups. The noise canceling is excellent. I noticed a huge difference from the other pair of headphones the school let me use (David Clark with no ANC). I haven’t had a chance to use the Bluetooth yet other than testing it at home, but the sound quality was very good when I did. The headset is expensive, but I think they’re worth it. I can definitely see why they’re consistently rated so well. If I were to offer an improvement, it would be deeper detents for the middle of the volume knobs. They’re very light currently so it can be difficult to know both sides are even. And I hope someday they can make the headphones wireless, where you would just plug a wireless adapter into the dual plugs and not have several feet of cable hanging off of you. But that’s just a dream at this point. Still absolutely a five star headset. ... show more

Headsets are a tool for your career, so I didn't mind investing in these. This headset is a MASSIVE improvement in comfortability while flying, I have been really impressed with them on my longer XC flights. Made inflight comms and listening to ATC far less stressful.
