By Cherokee pilot from Marshall NC USA on Saturday, February 14, 2015
Pros: Great headset. Really nice features and quality for the $
Cons: Not quite as good as Bose or Lightspeed etc, but they are EXPENSIVE!
Review: The G2 ANR headset has been great so far. I can tell a big difference in quietness both with and without the ANR on. It is a very comfortable headset to wear especially with its price tag! The day I tried it out I invited my dad along on a flight with his Bose a20 headset to compare with. We traded while in cruise flight. As soon as I put the Bose on I could tell a little bit less clamping force on my head and the Bose is a little quieter. We switched again and he said the same thing. However, we both asked ourselves, is it worth the price difference? I think that boils down to how much you fly... Every day invest with the Bose. Weekend flyer G2 ANR is great!

Pros: Comfortable, blocks cockpit noise, microphone and headset affords goodcommunication within and out of cockpit
Cons: The battery box for the ANR is located in an awkward position on the headset cord. The box tends to frattle against door frame in minor turbulence.
Review: The headset is comfortable, ear cups are supple noise attenuation is good.

Pros: Decent noise canceling
Cons: Rocker switch for noise canceling tends to turn itself on when in headset bag.
Review: This is a good headset for the price. I wouldn't call it excellent, but it is quite good. I'm using these while flying a Beech Baron BE58, which is a noisy plane. The noise canceling works well. Without the noise canceling the noise reduction is just ok. I think if the ear seals were a larger diameter, and maybe a bit thicker, the sound deadening would be much better both with and without noise canceling. The flexible boom mic is very good. There is one bad thing about the headset, and that is the on/off switch for noise canceling. It is a rocker switch, and even if I carefully place it in my headset bag in a way in which it shouldn't touch anything else, it somehow still manages to turn itself on. This drains the batteries. A sliding switch would work much better.

Review: The only issue I have had is a little trouble getting the mic to register my voice. It almost acts like it has to warm up. The noise reduction is awesome!! I think they are very close the the level of the Bose A20 I was able to wear a couple times. I would buy another pair. As a student pilot, the price was right.

Pros: Price, comfort, keeps my ears from ringing.
Cons: Control switch
Review: Exactly what I expected. The power switch seems to be really easy to turn on in the bag, and really eats through batteries. However, the headset works as intended. I like it, and would buy it again.

Pros: Works well, easy to use on/off switch.
Cons: none found
Review: Very comfortable and gets the job done. Have had no problems. Feels rugged enough and wires thick enough to not break while in the bag

By A Customer from Palm Beach Gardens FL USA on Thursday, March 10, 2016
Pros: Surprisingly more quiet than I anticipated.
Cons: The on off switch is easily hit in storage and has killed the batteries. carry spares. The volume has to be turned up quite a bit to be functional
Review: This headset is very comfortable if just a bit larger and heavier than units more than twice the price. A great starter set that I will relegate to passsengers sometime in the future.

Pros: good value
Cons: Not really any so far
Review: They are obviously not the best. Let's face it, you get what you pay for. That said, for ANR headsets under $400, they are pretty good. they work fine and the batteries seem to last decent. I have 7 hours on this set of batteries and the light is still green. The switch got left on for the first set so only got 3 out of those. They could be a little better if they incorporated a clip on the battery case to help hang it up pout of the way. Time will tell how they hold up.

Pros: all in all, great for the price. anr when on, works well
Cons: cord too short, unit eats batteries
Review: Wish cord was longer and wish switch for ANR was a positive slide type and designed to stay where one puts it, either on or off.
