Other than having to turn my radio volume controls up and the sound is tinny, can't beat the price compared to others.

Light and Comfortable

  • By Stephen from Knoxville TN USA on Tuesday, April 04, 2023
  • Pros: Very light and doesn’t bounce around.
  • Review: I’ve never seen a 5 star headset, but I have been very pleased with this one. As most things it take a few legs to adjust, but then it’s nice to have ear sore and top of head pressure.

Very Comfortable

  • By Kelley from Oley, PA on Monday, April 04, 2022
  • Pros: Light, Comfortable, Clear
  • Review: I bought these to determine if I liked the style of head set (in-ear). I have been wearing them for a few months now and I really like this style. The Faro is light, easy to put on, and comfortable! The microphone is a bit difficult to adjust and I sometimes find myself holding the arm when I talk to other in the cabin, not that I need to. This is a very good and inexpensive headset.

Faro Air Lightweight In-Ear Headset

Takes a little getting used to but after that GREAT

  • By Austin from Tempe AZ USA on Saturday, August 26, 2017
  • Pros: Lightweight, take very little room
  • Review: I write this review with about 50 hours flight time with them. This was my first experience with an "in ear" type of headphone. I fly a piston and the cockpit is loud but these do a nice job cancelling the sound, though they are not noise cancelling. The ear buds themselves are comfortable. It takes some time to get used to putting them on. And the hardest part and is still difficult after these 50 hours is placement of the mic. The headset is dependent on the back portion to rest against your head so if it's not positioned well or not snug enough the mic tends to move. Once all that is ironed out it's great. Would I buy this again? Probably.

Excellent lightweight headset

  • By Harold from Birmingham AL USA on Monday, June 19, 2017
  • Pros: Lightweight and no ear pressure
  • Review: The headset is extremely lightweight, which is what I was looking for, to use in a jet cockpit. It is comfortable for wear hours and hours. It seems to provide very adequate noise suppression, without needing a battery powered ANR system.

Takes getting used to, but great buy!

  • By Kimberly from Moravia NY USA on Friday, February 03, 2017
  • Pros: Lightweight, can wear any sunglasses and/or hat
  • Review: Going from an over the ear headset to the in ear headset takes some getting used to. You hear the airplane differently. Make sure you check which size plugs fit your ears best.

Does it really work?

  • By Loren from Falcon Heights MN USA on Tuesday, July 19, 2016
  • Pros: How to
  • Review: Does it really work? I bought the Faro headset put it on and tried it out and was totally disappointed in the level of noise suppression. Then I noticed that there were different size ear pieces in the bag and I pulled out the large one and put it onto the headset and tried again. It was only then that I realized that the smaller your pieces did not seal up very well and the larger ones sealed up perfectly. The problem was not with the headset but with the operator! And I have also used it to listen to music and TV and I am very impressed with the quality of the sound it produces.
