£389.95

The lightest and most comfortable set. Innovatively it stores the two AAA batteries in the headset itself, even though the control box isn't much smaller as a result. Very slim earcups rotate 90° for storage in the thinnest headset case on test.

Slightly ‘tinny’ intercom sound, but audio from the music input was superb. Control buttons on the side of the earphones can be hard to find. However, overall noise reduction was disappointing, not up there with other Sennheisers.

FEATURES

Talk-Through function for direct communication in the cockpit

Peak-Level-Protection safeguards your hearing from damage by volume peaks above 110dB

Audio-imput facility for external audio sources

313g

VERDICT

The ANR isn't very good for single engine piston flying and not really up to it: it's perhaps OK for a quiet twin or jet. The quality of the music coming through is  very good though.
