Nice write up, the A30s are a dream! I believe the A20 second hand market should start to come down soon.

I was a bit disappointed in the announcement today. I was expecting some great innovation from Bose to surpass the advances made by Lightspeed Delta Zulu. Maybe I’m missing something, but I expected more from Bose. Making the headset more comfortable and continuing the already great ANR seems weak. Where’s the innovation like wearable detectors, audio tuning for personal hearing loss, etc.? How about a wireless headset that uses a small transmitter plugged into the GA ports so we can finally lose the cables? There are so many things that could be done to really bring 21st century innovation to aviation headsets. Lightspeed seems to have gotten the message. Bose is going to be left behind if they don’t figure it out.
