What's the difference between the LightSPEED 15XLc and the LightSPEED 20XLc?
The major difference between the two models is the amount of active cancellation. The 15XLc has a maximum of 18dB of active cancellation and the 20XLc tops out actively at 24dB. Another difference is the passive attenuation. The 20XLc has 2dB more passive attenuation. The difference in cancellation can be quite noticeable, depending on the noise environment. The louder the noise, the more noticeable the difference will be. The ear seals are also different. The 15XLc has an ultra soft ear seal, while the 20XLc has the soft ear seal. This is the reason for the 2dB passive attenuation difference between the two. Both of these headsets are covered by a 3-year warranty and have the cell phone/music jack.

What's the difference between the LightSPEED Twenty / Thirty 3G series and the LightSPEED XLc series?
Other than the obvious change in the color scheme, there are a few different features on the 3G that are not on the XLc. The 3G-battery box has a more ergonomic tear drop shape. The XLc battery box has a rectangular design. The battery box on the 3G also has a side tone equalizer (i.e. a bass and/or treble boost) that allows people to choose what sounds best to them. Another difference is the ear seal. On the 3G LightSPEED has changed the outer coating to a leather-like material and increased the size of the ear opening. The internal foam remains the same as the XL, for that well-known comfortable fit. In the XLc series, LightSPEED uses a separate speaker for voice and the active noise reduction. The 3G series has a single speaker, dual driver system. With this system there is a noticeable upgrade in audio fidelity and intelligibility.

Tuesday, June 16, 2009 Lightspeed 15XLc ANR is a good value by al from owens cross roads AL USA  Pros: Comfortable with good noise supression and audio quality for a reasonable cost. Cons: none to date Review: The 15XLc ANR has lived up to all the advertising claims. The longest flight with it so far was in a P28 R for an hour and a half. It performed well and was comfortable. Saturday, October 13, 2007 An excellent first by Robert from Olympia WA USA  Pros: nice carrying case Review: This is the first headset that I've purchased but used alot of others. Its great for the price, comfortable, and the noise cancelling was well worth the extra cash. The one thing I deal with is forgetting to turn it off but it still lasts along time leaving on in the bag. Sunday, August 15, 2004 by A Customer from Monroe LA  Review: Super, I have yet to put it into extensive service, it is a 31st anniversary gift for my wife. With that said, test runs have shown that it is all you said it would be.
