    Pros

    Great noise reduction, comfortable (although only worn for 75 minutes at a stretch so far).

    Cons

    Mic seems to take a split second to voice-actuate for intercom use.

    General Comments

    Well made, works as expected, but only used for 15 hours so far!

    Pros

    I fly an Aeronca Champ...a noisy cockpit environment. I already had another brand ANR headset and needed one for the rear seat. I heard good things about the Lightspeed so bought this one for me and moved the other one to the rear seat...WOW! The difference is amazing. The Lightspeed is very quiet, substantially cut down my background noise making communication with the tower and now the backseat orders of magnitude better than before. I could not rate the durability or reliability since it's still new to me.
    I highly recommend it.

    Sporty's price was the best out there. The service was excellent. The unit shipped quickly, arriving sooner than expected.

    For the money, this was a good choice. It provides adequate noise reduction and is very easy to use.

    Cons

    The boom is not of the best design and would have been better if it had been articulable. One other issue is that it seems to burn through batteries pretty quickly.

    Comfortable fit, very clear sound. Even with the con's I've listed I still believe to be one of the best headsets for the money.

    Cons

    Slight feedback sound when you move headset around, had to return my first set because feedback was so bad they were not usable. My 20G's do not have this problem. Not sure if it's just because the noise canceling is more sensitive. Not very good without the ANR turned on, so keep extra batteries handy.

    Excellent noise reduction.

    Cons

    As is the case with most current generation headsets, a little bulky.

    General Comments

    Noise reduction is a necessity when flying. This headset is an excellent value compared to the Bose brand.

    ANR works well, very comfortable, well made.

    Cons

    The ANR in one earpiece in my first 30-3G likes to cut out on takeoff. I need to send it back to Lightspeed for repairs (when I get around to it...). Fortunately I hear they have great support.

    General Comments

    Like it so much I bought a second one!

    Pros

    The overall look of the headset is bulky, but after a number of long crosscountry flights I barely noticed any pressure or weight to the headsets. The ANR system is extremely appriciated as is the automatic shut off system. I did have a problem within the first few uses, but Lightspeed quickly sent me a new one.

    Cons

    None at this time.

    General Comments

    I originaly owned a pair of 20XL (which worked great). The 20XL's were traded for the 30-3G thru Lightspeed. I then bought another pair of 30-3G's for my son (a pilot) at Sporty's.
    Because we've recently purchased a true 4 seat aircraft, I'm considering getting another 30-3G or trying the new Zulu headsets.
    Overall Lightspeed represents a great amount of value for the performance.

    General Comments

    After what I've been used to, these are a pleasure to wear. I've used them for local, one hour flights as well as some three hour, cross country flights and wouldn't trade them for the comfort they afford.
    I love them.
