> 24 hourAmazing sound and comfort. Just plug them in and go. Have put thousands of miles in then in a short period of time and they have never let me down. You can get different sized pads for the top to make the fit even better. Worth every penny.

> 24 hourIve been using this in a C172 and have been thrilled. The battery life has been excellent, the noise cancelling performs better than I had hoped, and the additional bluetooth and recording capabilities are all a nice bonus. Shipped promptly, received as expected, all at a competitive price.

> 24 hourIn my opinion, the best GA headset available. It is extremely comfortable and the ANR is exceptional. I upgraded from the original Zulu to the Zulu 3 so I have been flying with a Zulu headset for around 5 years. The Bluetooth is great for listening to music on long cross countries and for calling for fuel while Im taxiing to the hangar. Most people cant even tell that Im calling them from a loud cockpit with the engine running when I tell them that Im still in the plane. Highly recommended.

> 24 hourPossibly the best headset in the market. Everything works as advertised and they look strong enough to last a very long time. Very comfortable.

> 24 hourI bought this headset about half-way through my private training and it was a substantial upgrade over the david clarks I was using. I am now a CFI and use this headset daily and it is one of the best investments I have made. I used to get out of the plane with splitting headaches because of the clamping pressure, but this went away with the lightspeeds. I can wear them for hours comfortably and forget I have them on. I have seen some reviews about premature wear, but I have had this headset for almost 2 years and it does not show any signs of wear. A lot of my friends have the Bose A20s and this headset competes extremely well with it. I even swapped with my friend for a flight and struggled to find that much of a difference. The A20s are lighter, but I felt that the large ear cups on the Zulus distribute the pressure better. The materials are actually better on the Zulu-the A20 has much more plastic. However, some people make a big deal out of this when it really isnt-provided you arent gronk spiking your aviation headset into the ground. The braided cable is also a nice touch on the Zulu but once again not life changing. The Bluetooth feature works very easily and gets pretty loud. The com priority button on the control module is great as it automatically turns the music off whenever ATC says something. Overall, I think this headset is a great investment if you plan on spending a lot of time in GA aircraft. I dont agree with the people saying passive headsets are just as good. The general consensus at my 141 flight school is that noise cancelling is almost a must for a CFI. The A20s are great if you have the money, but I could not really find any reason to buy them over the Zulu 3s. I have recommended them to all of my friends looking to upgrade.

> 24 hourGreat so far, only two lessons deep in a Cessna 172 getting PPL. Noise cancellation makes it easier to understand what others are saying significantly. Cord for headset feels indestructible.

> 24 hourThe headset fits fine, but I immediately realised the microphone boom is too short.
