## Overview

The Bose A30 Bluetooth Aviation Headset is a premium, FAA and EASA certified pilot headset featuring a lightweight circumaural design with 20% less clamping force for superior comfort. It offers three user-selectable active noise cancellation modes, a precision noise-cancelling microphone optimized for aviation communication systems, and Bluetooth connectivity that integrates seamlessly with mobile devices and electronic flight bags.

## Description

The Bose A30 Aviation Headset is best utilized where noise is pervasive, comfort is required and communication is critical. The Bose A30 is Bose’s highest-performing, full-featured around-ear active noise cancelling aviation headset to date. With 20% less clamping force than the Bose A20 and redistributed weight for superior on-head stability, the comfort of the A30 rises to the top among over-the-ear form factors. The Bose A30 Aviation Headset with Bluetooth further improves upon the comfort and functionality of the Bose A20 with a new acoustic design and a fully digital active noise reduction (ANR) system. As the first-ever around-ear aviation headset with three modes of user selectable noise cancellation, the Bose A30 enables pilots to control the noise they hear in the cockpit. Plus, the Bose A30’s optional Bluetooth interface and tap control for talk-through communication offer versatility for pilots across all aircraft. This pilot headset also features a toolless, side swappable boom mic and down cable, and its improved carry case has internal zippered storage and padded sides for extra protection.

Review: Great upgrade from A20s but downside is the new ANR - I’ve put about 1,000 hours on my headset now and will say. The ANR isn’t as good as a set of A20s in my opinion. I do fly 300 and 400 series Cessnas pressurized and unpressurized. I have listened to music through these at max or near max volume for 90% of the time. Sometimes on max volume and ATC Going the speaker will distort in your ear. Great music sound also. Just need to improve on ANR
Review: Make Your Flights Easier. - Very nice headset. Does not wear on the ears as much as some of the A20s I have borrowed. Sound cancelation is very well done.

A: Hello Gustavo, the Bose A20 is engineered with communication as the priority, the volume of your music will lower when communicating. We think you'll love the A20, the noise cancelling is incredible and the communication is so clear. Thanks for the question!

**Q: Flying a diamond da40ng, is it suitable to use bose ?**
A: I’ve been flying with a Bose headset for over 10 years.  The ANR IS excellent and the fit comfortable.  The DA40NG is reportedly quieter than most gasoline engines so the Bose should be perfect.  Bose Service, if needed, is outstanding.
