Bose audio headset???

I should add I use Zulus as my every day headet. I bought the QC15 and Uflymike as a backup and to keep in my bag to use as a media headset when I Jumpseat. They are awesome I highly recommend them.

Did you notice better ANR with the switch to lithiums? Or just longer lasting? The BE99 is so freaking loud my Uflymikes get overpowered sometimes.

A little bit of both. They dont cut out with lithiums were they normally would with alkalines.
 
Im not a fan of the QC15 and Uflymike. They dont cut the noise like the Bose A20, and if the Bat dies, so does the whole headset.
 
QC 15 for a normal headset/media listening device = awesome. Had a crying toddler on a 9 hour flight back from Hawaii and didn't hear it the entire way with the headphones on. If i didn't have those headphones, I probably would have jumped outta the plane somewhere around California.
 
I've used the Bose QC2 and QC3's with the UFLYMIKE. Both work great in a jet and one AAA battery last me 30-40 hours. The UFLYMIKE will not work with the QC15's. The QC3 is noticibably better than the 2's. Bose also has a great warranty. I bout the QC2's used and after a couple of years I upgraded to theQC3's for only $99 at a Bose store. They will buy back their old equipment and give you credit towards new stuff. I have also used the Warranty when I broke my Bose ear buds and they replaced them with no questions asked.

I think you have some wrong info. The QC3' do not work and you need QC2's or 15's
 
I love my QC15.

On my ultra long trips my ears are rested and head doesnt feel like its been clamped.
 
I am excited to try it out. Hopefully the Dash won't eat up batteries like other aircraft might!
 
Have the Zulu 2 and the QC15 myself. QCs are really nice for just flying as pax. Don't wanna be lugging around any huge headsets (would also look rather silly with a massive GA headset sitting in the back).
Didn't go for the A20s bcs the Zulu is better :p

Well I beg the differ I think the Bose are better... :)
 
Well they are pretty similar. Esthetically the A20 looks a bit better, but in regards to ANR I can't feel any difference between them.
I've owned a Bose X for about 200 hours, Zulu 1 for about 900 hours, and Zulu 2 for about 200 hours.
I also fly with a lot of people who have the A20s, so I've tried them on.
The only difference between the A20 and the Zulu2 that I have seen is:
- The A20 is more expensive
- The A20 looks better
- The A20 does not have bluetooth audio (The Zulu 2 does)

Other than that there are no major differences that I have seen

I really think it is a personal preference but, I tried them both on on EAA Oshkosh last year about 5 times a piece to see which one was better and the reason I went with the Bose I thought the ANR was better (also they were more comfortable with the glasses I wear)...
