I'm a full time Instructor using the X11's since March & all in all - they're a good set and the batteries last approx. 30 hrs. Beware, they are very comfortable!
As mentioned on an earlier post, ANR headsets come into their own if you're wearing them day in, day out all day long! Can't believe I didn't give my ears a rest like this years ago!!!
Initially I feared for the robustness of the headset but after 5-6 months of Instructor abuse, they're still in perfect condition.
The only "issue" I have is that the headphone cord could've been a little bit longer as the battery box does tend get in the way now & again!
As for compatibility? So far so good with me. I've not had any issues yet. Peltors, avcomms, several unknown brands and even older DC's (aka 10.40's) seems to work.
I got mine from
here in the States. Saved myself £100 & they were here with me in the UK within a week!!
Hope this helps Wheatools!
