If you own a Lighspeed 33G you can get a $500 trade-in toward a Zulu.  Brings the price down... in a round-about way.

Just read an article on headsets in Australian Flying Magazine, the Lightspeed Zulu got a good mention - has Bluetooth as well, not cheap though.
Has anyone used the Bose-X ?

Is there anyone out there with a Lightspeed Zulu that can report on its effectiveness?

Best Regards,

Good report Mike.  I know what you mean about a quieter muffler.  My ANR headset does a good job of killing the low frequencies, but a poor job on the higher frequencies.  The rotary has both.  So take your pick, turn the ANR on and listen to the high frequencies, or turn it off and listen to the low rumble.  If I could only find an ANR that can do both I would be a happy camper.

I added another 1.3 hours to my total flight time today. And for the first time I landed and was completely satisfied with the flight. I'd still like to quiet it down a little, but this was the first flight where I didnt feel like there was anything that had to be fixed before the next flight. Even the landing was pretty decent.
 
I've got just over 9 hours of flight time and about 40 hours of engine run time now. So far all of my flight time has been directly over the airport because to venture away requires flying over about 50 miles of mostly unlandable mountainous terrain. But I'm starting to think seriously about stretching the legs a little...
