David Clark - headset purchasing 101

Ok so I found out the other day how personal, flying can be. I thought you could just turn up at an airfield jump in a plane and do a lesson. Didn't realise you need your own:

Map
Logbook (well that's a given)
Nav computer
Headset
Manual (specific to the plane your flying)

And........headphones.

Nw I've made my bed with David Clark (and I know peltor are a fantastic brand) ......in the "I can't afford $1000 on a Bose headset" category. However...

I've bought H10-76 (the military one) with a conversion kit for £120 ($180 I think that translates.

Has any one used these headsets, and are they all they're cracked up to be? I heard nothing but good things and if the military use them well great, but I've had the experience of seeing the cost and quality that goes into "military stuff" when I worked on a Jaguar and saw all the overly priced toys in the workshop hangar at RAF St.. (Something or other)
