AV COMM AC900

  • By Kenneth from Tucson AZ USA on Monday, June 07, 2010
  • Pros: comfortable, easy to use, PTT on headset, noise reduction
  • Cons: Get warm quick, but then Again I fly in 100+ degree weather
  • Review: While I will admit that my experience with other headsets is quite limited as I am a student pilot, I am very happy with these. A recommendation from a long time pilot led me to this purchase, and I have been very happy. The only issue I have is one I think I would have with any headset. I live in Arizona, it is quite warm here, the gel ear pieces are very comfortable but after about 20 minutes become warm. Sometimes after a flight there is some sweat that has occured. I have seen some cloth pieces on other headseats and think this may help. I would with out hesitation recommend this head seat to an individual that is just starting his/her training like me. The lower cost and performance of this headset is supurb for my needs.

Outstanding Headset

  • By Ben from Lincoln, NE on Monday, September 07, 2009
  • Pros: comfortable, lots of features, reliable,
  • Cons: none!
  • Review: This headset exceeded my expectations. It is extremely comfortable, and it comes with deluxe cotton ear covers which i didn't think i would use or like, but they are wonderful. They make the headset even more comfortable and if you sweat during flight it won't slide around with the cotton ear covers on. It has a built in PTT, so if yours is malfunctioning or you don't have one on your side, it is great. I can't find anything it lacks. It reduces the noise very much. It is an extremely great headset at a very good price.

Great Bang for the Buck

  • By Rich from Port Angeles WA USA on Thursday, August 28, 2008
  • Pros: Comfort, Headband adjustment, Price
  • Cons: none yet
  • Review: This replaced my HS-1 and is a great upgrade. It is very comfortable and I am able to wear it for longer periods without fatigue. Mine came with an additional, shorter headband to accommodate smaller heads which was not advertised. The NRR is very good. The flex boom is easer to position than the wire boom. Overall quality seems very good.

Very comfortable, Good value.

  • By Pat from Jacksonville, FL on Tuesday, December 30, 2008
  • Pros: Very, very comfortable, and who really needs active noise reduction?
  • Cons: I guess if you want a status-symbol, this is not for you.
  • Review: This is really top of the line without getting fancy and gaudy. I would think twice before I bought a more expensive pair. The flex boom will stay where you put it--no need to tighten any screws. The gel ear seals are amazingly comfortable, especially with the cloth covers that were included with mine (I think they are included with all). Don't listen to that one bad review--that guy obviously didn't have his radios set up correctly and blamed this nice headset. 5 year warranty is good.

Excellent Headsets. I recommend to every pilot.

  • By Emanuel from Deland FL USA on Friday, October 26, 2007
  • Review: I loved them. Those are the best headset that I bought in my life. They are very comfortable, and excellent audio system and the integrate push button is an advantage because the pilot doesn't need to put their hands in the yoke to talk. I loved I recommend to every pilot, especially student pilot.

1000 hrs and still going strong..!!

  • By Kelly from Mississippi on Friday, August 24, 2007
  • Pros: They work like a champ, wear well on long trips, PTT is nice when instructing, best bang for buck.
  • Cons: Started flying a Baron and they don't cut the noise enough so i'm moving up to the AvComm ANR950.
  • Review: Best "first" headsets for the price and features. And now with the ANR950 there is an option to the high priced Bose.

Great Buy!!!

  • By Wayne from Odessa TX USA on Monday, January 28, 2008
  • Review: For the money, this is a great headset. I have some hearing loss in my right ear and any background noise really distorts sound. This set works great and the sounds come across clearly. It is also very comfortable.

A great headset.

  • By Joseph from Stanardsville VA USA on Wednesday, September 15, 2010
  • Pros: Comfort, price, quality
  • Cons: None other than others who might prefer to be robbed of $1,000
  • Review: This is a great headset. It's comfortable, not very expensive, well made. My voice back through the headset sounds clear & crisp, although slightly "electronic" sounding, if that is the right word to use. But that is nit picking since I am accustomed to listening to voices through professional recording equipment. A definite find. I would buy again.

AVCOMM AC900 Headset

  • By Wayne H. from Woodsville NH USA on Sunday, December 06, 2009

  • By A Customer from SAN JOSE CA on Monday, August 09, 2004
  • Review: This is my first headset. I used it in flight and it performed very well. All communications were very clear. Mine came with some extra schwag in the box, like gel ear pads and a mic cover. That was a nice bonus. The Stereo option is cool. I practice my flight simulator wearing this and can get a much better sense of conditions via the stereophonic feedback. My sun glasses are uncomfortable to wear with the headset. I believe that would be the case with with any headset, so make sure to buy thin wire frame glasses for comfort.

  • By John from Navarre FL USA on Wednesday, November 11, 2009
  • Review: The headset itself is very good. Extremely comfortable for me even on the long flights. It should definitely be availabe with the flex cord though. I almost rip my head off every time I have to move away from my station in a hurry. Good sound, good controls on both sides. A very good product for the money.

Not impressed at all

  • By Donald Mustachio on Friday, May 04, 2007
  • Review: I was mildly put off by the fact that the wire lead cords are less flexible than most others but they became entirely useless to me when both Unicomm and other pilots reported that my transmissions were so weak as to be barely audible; this while the mike was pressed against my lips.
    Reception is fine.
