peterh337, 50h does not = £5k for everyone. It's clear from what you post here and elsewhere that you have a large expendable income.
For me, 30h = ~£1500 including club fees and maintenance etc. It depends how you choose to spend your money, which when you don't have much, has to be very carefully.
I use a variety of headsets including Peltor, DC, DC + aftermarket ANR and Lynx. They each have their benefits depending on the application. That said, I prefer ANR where possible, because I've met too many old deaf pilots.
The aftermarket kit from Headsets Inc works really well, (use in a sport biplane so it's definitely being tested). This works out a good deal cheaper than the shiny new headsets people are discussing here. No phone / music, but cheaper protection for your ears while you're waiting for that big pay bonus...
