Jet Headset: Telex 850 vs ANR 500

I'm trying to decide between the 850 and the ANR 500 for use in a Cessna Citation 560. The 850 is very light and doesn't require a battery, but the 500 cuts more noise and may be used when I become a weekend warrior in the C172. They are similar in price, 415 USD for the 850, and $450 USD for the 500 on Marv Golden.

I'm wondering if anyone here has tried them both? Any reviews would be helpful for use in the Citation line. I've read a lot on here THE AIR LINE PILOTS ASSOCIATION and here Airman ANR 850

I have a Telex 750 and it's just doesn't cut it for me as I have been rockin' the Telex 50D for years and am accustomed to very low noise levels. The 50D is a little overkill for the jet, though. Thanks for your input!
