HELP - Need to test new headset brand

[Admin]

Hi all, as you may know I am based in Melbourne Australia and I have received 2 new headsets which are real Bose contenders but at half the price. The first one is the new Clamshell ANR model of the well known Aircraft Pilots ANR - 1. Secondly, I have received a test unit of the professional range of the EPOS headsets. The EPOS headsets are used by the higher end of the aviation industry, are passive noise reduction not at the usual 25db or so but up at a whopping 40db of noise reduction.

 

Both of these headsets will retail at less than half of what a Bose set will cost you with the EPOS having an incredible introductory price as well.

 

Now I need someone's help in taking me for a quick flight so I can test these 2 headsets. I am in Melbourne and will travel to where you are at any day and time that suits you. So please help me to help everyone to have the opportunity of getting top level headsets at a very affordable price, I will even pay for fuel.

 

If you can please let me know ASAP either through the site's private messaging or by phone on 0412881108...I would very much appreciate it, thanks

Come on Melbourne flyers get Ian up to test his headsets.  I'm too far away otherwise could do it.

Like so many of us.

 

If all else fails - I can fly down, from The Oaks, NSW, to a mutually acceptable airfield.

 

As always, weather will dictate both do-ability & timing.

It’s arranged, weather permitting.

How did the headset test go?

 

I’d like to buy the Bose A20 set advertised for $900 on here but I fear it might be a scam. The guy claims to be George Kuri from Brisbane but has failed to supply his phone number when asked.

 

Anybody know this guy Noragomaz? He has only four posts.

Hi, that user has been deleted as the email address didnt exactly seem right, his posts were right on the borderline in the security points score so I removed him from the site manually.

Thanks so much @pmccarthy for taking me up to check the headsets, it was an enormous help, it exposed one issue with one of the headsets and the other headset was just as good as the Bose yet half the price. I dont want to have anything in the Clear Prop shop that is not up to the best quality fkr the best price so I need to test as much as I can for you

Hi Ian,

Are the new ones an upgrade from the current AP ANR-1 Headsets?
