Jamey Jacobs Posted March 22, 2019 Report Share Posted March 22, 2019 Quick question to Phoenix owners regarding headsets (I need to replace my old one and anticipate buying a Phoenix). Any experience / issue with the Bose A20 and potential scratching of the canopy? How about Lightspeed Zulu 3? Others you recommend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeschumann Posted March 22, 2019 Report Share Posted March 22, 2019 Scratching the canopy is definitely an issue. I got a fabric (maybe leather) sleeve that zippers over the headset bracket to minimize this. Are you buying a new Phoneix? If so, make sure you get LEMO jacks installed instead of, or in addition to traditional headset jacks, so you can use a noise cancelling headset without screwing around with batteries.

Jamey Jacobs Posted March 22, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2019 Thanks. Did you buy the sleeve? If so, where? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeschumann Posted March 22, 2019 Report Share Posted March 22, 2019 I bought this sleeve: https://www.lightspeedaviation.com/product/qfr-zippered-head-pad/ I installed it on my headset (not a lightspeed) with the zipper down. It may or may not fit different headsets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Registered Eric Greenwell Posted March 25, 2019 Registered Report Share Posted March 25, 2019 My wife and I use a Clarity Aloft headsets. They work well, and there is no chance of it scratching anything. For other passengers, I have standard headset, and none of the passengers' heads seemed close enough to touch the canopy (the passengers were male and female, small and large).
