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. In addition, the A20 headset offers a high-performance electret microphone, 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. Bluetooth wireless technology is 3.1. Troubleshoot-cannot hear intercom communications while listening to audio from aux source make sure the headset is firmly connected to the intercom or radio system. Make sure the 0.14 inch aux audio cable is firmly connected to the control module and the aux source. Electret microphone sensitivity varies depending on bias and ac radio input impedance. Typical output is 600 mv at 114 db spl. To assure proper modulation of the radio, it is recommended that an avionics technician adjusts its input to match the output of the microphone. Dynamic microphone impedance is 5 ohm or 150 ohm dynamic mic and sensitivity is equivalent to m-87/m-101

    • Ears ahead of the competition
Color: Black Size: Dual Plug Style: A20
This is my second Bose. The Bose X I've owned for seven years has been a great headset. The A20 is in my opinion is only slightly better as far as noise attenuation goes. Comfort was never an issue with the Bose X so it's hard to say the A20 is noticeably better. I elected to get the non-Bluetooth version since that option to me would be just added expense for something I'd seldom if ever use not to mention just one more thing to maintain and learn to use. The patch cable will do just fine if I ever want to use it with my cell phone, again not likely to happen. What I like about the Bose is it's low profile and light weight and the ability to wear it for hours without discomfort. Update: After using the A20 for some months now I'm convinced it is superior to the Bose 10. The ear cups are just slightly larger but give more comfort overall. The mike is excellent and a bit smaller than the Bose 10 which I like. The electronics in the A20 do a better job of noise attenuation. It is worth the upgrade, however I still have my Bose X but have retired it to the right seat position. Battery life was excellent on the Bose X and the A20 is as good or slightly better (non bluetooth version). It is still and expensive headset but if you can justify the cost you will not be disappointed. ... show more

    • Simply the best aviation headset you can buy
Color: Black Size: Dual Plug Style: A20
Enough said. If you are wondering what headset to get for flying, then this is the one. Comfortable, fantastic sound quality, especially if you stream your XM while flying, and it has been trouble free. This is my second one for my passenger.. I've had mine for about 5 years and have about 500 trouble free hours. Even after wearing them for 8 hours in a day my ears and head feel fine Look no further. The Lightspeed and other products might be cheaper, and that's because they simply aren't as great (I've tried many a headset). ... show more

    • Epic Headset
Color: Black Size: Dual Plug Style: A20
I love this product. The only downside is the price. I got the non Bluetooth option so I saved a little but 995 is quite a hefty price. The pros: the ANR is unbelievable. Very quiet and in my case it does not make the need to hear noises go away ( stall horn, etc...). Some pilots think that this makes it to quiet and you can’t hear the engine. I do not experience this. I am able to hear the vital engine noises that you want to hear and I am unable to hear the loud noises that you don’t want to hear. Overall a great product and would recommend to someone who has the budget. ... show more

    • Best investment for a student Pilot going for commercial
Color: Black Size: Dual Plug Style: A20
As a student Pilot, this headset really helped improving my progress overall! And here is why: 1. reduces fatigue and stress, with my cheap ASA Headset, I couldn't enjoy long training weeks (6 flights a week) since the constant noise and clamp force on my head induced a "full/aching head" sensation. 2. as a non native US English speaker, the Radio calls in my training area and at my training airport are sometimes difficult to understand (southern accents and American English in general). I had to turn my Volume to ear damaging levels in order to not miss calls. But now I can easily register and understand ATC Calls with acceptable to non harming sound levels. This improved my overall situational awareness to a level whereas my CFI was very confident to sent me off to solo without causing a traffic mess ;D 3. relax! as a glider pilot I was used to soar and enjoy flying in silence. The BOSE helps you to find this enjoyment since your inner instinct isn't agitated into a nervous alert modus since the constant noise level is reduced! All in all its still AVIATE, NAVIGATE and then COMMUNICATE but with the BOSE the communicate part is second nature! you can focus on the more important AVIATE and NAVIGATE part! Im not saying that you will become a top gun pilot with these, but your training will improve a lot! Still NC level might cancel engine sound to a level where you should regularly check engine gauges in your check flows, since you can't hear the engine "talking to you" and "indicating issues" ... show more

    • Quiet, just needs to stay on when solo.
Color: Black Size: Dual Plug Style: A20
Super quiet, especially after using David Clark . First time using them was on my checkride, I thought the engine quit after activating the noise cancelling lol. If you don’t talk for awhile the noise cancelling shuts off on its own which can be irritating.

    • Comfortable and excellent sound
Color: Black Size: Dual Plug Style: A20
Excellent headset. I bought the non-Bluetooth version since we are updating our audio panel to the GMA-345 next month. Noise cancellation is excellent, and on solo flights, I have plugged my phone into them using the 3.5mm jack to listen to music. Definitely would buy again.

    • Great headset
Color: Black Size: Dual Plug Style: A20
I already have a Bose A20 headset that I love. I bought this one for any passengers. Not sure that I could do without the Bose noise cancelling. No problem with wearing it for hours at a time. And it fits comfortably over my glasses, and with foggles over my glasses. Great headset. I really haven't used the Bluetooth very often so I didn't get it on this headset. ... show more
