Best Retailer In Oz For David Clark
I have just taken delivery of my brand new David Clark H10 13.4 mono headset from WadeAir www.wadeair.com.au in Spring Hill NSW, the headset arrived one day after their stock arrived and was even sent before I had time to get my card details to them, total cost $390 ex GST or about $445 delivered express post including GST, also comes with a generic headset bag. I haven't seen a place cheaper yet, even the US only just beats that price! I spent days researching the cheapest retailer so can pretty much guarantee these are the best.
Have some DC ENC headsets that work just fine,,,,,,,but not as good as Boses. Tried them both. I'm hoping that the airshow will have a special deal on Bose's like last time.

I bought one of the Skylite headsets from a HK based ebay shop - http://stores.ebay.com/Save4More
It's a cheapy that I bought to use whilst doing my initial training - I'm delighted with it - it's comfortable, has excellent sound insulation characteristics, the flexible boom for the microphone does it's thing and all for less than US$100

XCOM Avionics have only just (2 days ago) released their new headset.
Apparently only $155 for the first batch. Indistinguishable from DC's apparently, with gel and all.

I have used the XCOM radio but not the headsets as they are new.

After 20 years of wearing DC's, I have one thing to say Bose X, although I don't suppose they will last as long as my 20yo DC's!

Anyone with any experience of the LightSpeed Twenty or Thirty 3G ANR headsets?
I've read a number of reviews which rate them pretty highly, with about the only drawbacks being their large size (although they are light enough), and their construction (which appears a little plasticky, although if looked after, I'm sure they'd be fine).
At about half the cost of the Bose X or the DC ANR, my limited budget is more inclined towards the LightSpeed.
