Lightweight Headset

[Pukindog]

Is the CRJ capable of using the ANR headset (like the Sennheiser 25 KAP) that uses the connector (off the aircraft) for power?

Thanks a lot.

I bought a pair of Telex 850s and returned them after one two-day trip. While I really liked the no-battery ANR feature, they pinched the heck out of my ears and a headache would start in after 45 minutes or so. But then again, I wear glasses so perhaps I'm doomed to have this problem forever.

I'm going to try the 5x5's with the earmold next.

I use the 5 x 5 Pro with the custom earmold and really like it. No band over my head, headset hair, etc. I put an earplug in my empty ear, and I can hear the other guy just fine if he takes his off above 18000'. I love how small it is. I wish it cut out more background 'hiss' when my mic is open, however. I still close my hot mic when I'm not talking.
