Reliable, comfortable, affordable!!
- By Paul from Iowa on Monday, August 22, 2011
- Pros: Comfortable and very reliable!!
- Cons: Cord is way too long! 9V batteries dont last as long as the AAs either
- Review: I have tried lots of headsets from the Lightspeed Zulus to the top of the line Bose A20!! The noise cancelling quality of the DC 13X is just as good as any of the $1000 headsets out there! The comfort in my opinion is better! No soar ears after a long day in the air after wearing these!!! David Clark also stands behind their products!

Very comfortable
- By Patrick from West Palm Beach FL USA on Tuesday, April 21, 2009
- Pros: Good quality, good noise reduction, comfortable.
- Cons: Could be better in a helicopter. You need batteries.
- Review: Very comfortable, not to heavy, good noise reduction. I use in a helicopter with the adapter bought here (DC adapter is too expensive, does the same job) and in a 737. The noise reduction could be a little bit better in the helicopter it would be perfect then. In a 737 you even cannot hear any engine noise. Its like flying your FS on the PC with mute on. Long flights are much more comfortable with this headset. If both of you in the flight deck leave the interphone switch off, the only thing you hear is silence.

Reliability
- By RICHARD from MIAMI FL USA on Monday, August 11, 2008
- Pros: Reliability. Battery saver shuts off power when avionics are turned off or the HS is unplugged
- Cons: A bit bulky. The electronic box is small but has a way of dangling in the way.
- Review: I did a lot of research and thinking before purchsing the David Clark noise canceling headset. The clincher was several Bose reviewers praising the service they got from Bose when the had to send their headsets back for early repair. A flying buddy on getting his private treated himself to a set of Bose and had to send it back because of early problems. My flight instructor recommended the David Clarks highly because of their reliability. I personnally own a set of non noise canceling David Clarks and they have not gone back to DC yet. I own a pair of Bose quiet comfort headsets for airline travel and one of them had to go back to Bose. Bose service was excellent but when do you discover a problem... when you need them most.

Good quality, heavy
- By Coal150 from USA on Tuesday, March 12, 2019
- Pros: ANR, quality.
- Cons: Heavy, ugly.
- Review: You get a quality headset, with great noise cancelling. They are a bit heavy, and have 80's styling, but are still comfortable for shorter flights.
