Bose A20 Aviation Headset With Bluetooth
The most technologically advanced Bose aviation headset ever. Bose was the first to introduce active noise-reducing headsets to aviation more than 20 years ago, forever changing how pilots fly. Now, the Bose A20 Aviation Headset introduces an entirely new standard. It's been engineered for significantly increased noise reduction and performs in even louder environments.
With an improved degree of comfort, you'll appreciate it. All without compromising the clear audio you expect from Bose. Plus, a Bluetooth communications interface, auxiliary audio input, and priority switching. No other pilot headset can deliver this advanced combination of benefits.
Best Aviation Headset with Noise Reduction for Pilots
- Compared to standard aviation headsets, active noise reduction is 30% stronger.
- Active equalization improves audio quality by automatically reshaping and EQ'ing incoming signals for better sound and clarity.
- Customized audio prioritizing connection with "mute" and "mix" controls is another feature offered, as well as efficient power technology with auto-on that alternates between battery power and aircraft power.
- With the adjustable design, attaching the mic to either the left or right earcup is simple.
*Available in headset variants that use aircraft power for the active noise reduction system.
