Telex 850 vs DC pro / pro X?

currently flying the EMB-145 and looking for a new headset, any opinions?

I have no experience in the Embraer, but I have experience in a Lear 35 with both the 850 and Pro X.

I returned the 850's once I returned from my trip and purchased the Pro X. The 850's let in too much ambient noise.

Just bought a new set of Bose. Highly recommend. I forgot to turn them on and the passive NR was better than the ANR from my old headset. When I realized I'd forgotten to turn ANR on later in the flight, I turned it on and instinctually looked at the engine gauges because the noise reduction was so marked. They are really nice.

I use the Pro X in the 175. It's been a great headset. The only downside is changing out two AA batteries.

Call Matt. He just picked up a new pair. He says they're "not bad, not bad."
