Headset choice

Hi

My first post on here, I've been lurking for a few weeks and found it a useful source of information, opinions, humour.

Anyway, I have a simple question, I am a student PPL, now on my third attempt over the years but now I can actually afford it (sort of). I'm not going to be a professional pilot but would see maybe a hundred or so hours per year to do what I want to with my PPL.

I want to buy a headset and see them ranging from less than 100 quid to nearly 700. I understand about ANR etc and have used it for years for train and airline travel. I can completely understand why someone who makes their living flying for thousands of hours per year would go for top of the range but ...

What would folk recommend as a suitable headset for my needs and why ?

I know there are threads on here that cover the choice of headsets but they are pretty much focussed on the needs of the professional or wannabe professional pilot.

Thanks

Paul
