Id like to hear from people what they are actually flying when using the different type of sets, i can beleive that ANR would have difficulty keeping up with very noisy environments like the pitts.
I borrowed a pilots Bose headset to see how good they were when flying with him in his Warrior, and found it disappointing to say the least, i expected much better reduction, the constant hiss was almost as bad as the engine noise and with the ANR turned off it actually amplified the engine noise!
Which in a way made the ANR seem better when it went on!
Doing stints of sometimes up to 8 hours in a day in some light twin engine aircraft i dont really find my DC13.4s tiring to wear as some pilots point out, so i cant find a real justifiable reason to upgrade.
Would appreciate any further comments...
Cheers
