Great fit and fantastic sound quality! I have never had an ANR headset until now and what a difference it makes! The Bluetooth is a great added feature
I’ve only used it for ten legs over three days, but it is excellent in every way. I find it very comfortable. I had heard complaints that it was too loose. I find it slightly loose and it does slide back if I tilt my head back, but to me it is a minor inconvenience, and worth it given the overall comfort. It’s definitely an improvement over my older A20 headset. The sound quality with glasses on is still excellent.
We bought 3 A30's to replace some older LightSpeed headsets that came with the Cirrus we just purchased. The A30's does not disappoint. Very clear, very quiet. We are also enjoying the switch for the different levels of ANR.
Excellent upgrade from the A20. Lower clamping pressure is great for long flights and those of us who must wear glasses. The noise cancellation works exceptionally well. This is the 6th set of Bose aviation headsets I have purchased over the last 20 years. I need 4 for my Cessna 180 and one for when I am flying jets. In that time I have only had one fail (a Bose X) and it was nearly 20 years old, this A30 replaces it. They are expensive but they work really well and they last. The cords have occasionally been a problem and I would be happier if I had better ability to change those out without major expense.
