Bose debuts the A20 Aviation Headset

Audio equipment guru Bose has now introduced to the world the A20, "its best-performing, most advanced aviation headset ever" which is supposed to deliver "significantly greater noise reduction," great comfort, clear audio reproduction, plus a Bluetooth communications interface.

"Since introducing the industry's first active noise reduction headset in 1989, we've continued our aviation research with a very specific goal: to improve the flying experience for pilots," said Sean Garrett, general manager of the Bose Noise Reduction Technology Group. "With the A20 headset, several proprietary technologies work together to deliver a combination of benefits that wasn't available until today."

The A20 makes use of technology found on the QuietComfort 15 consumer headphones to offer a high level of active noise reduction, features a new proprietary ear cushion and a new earcup design for better passive noise reduction, is powered by two AA batteries and comes with multiple connection options, including a 3.5mm adapter.

The A2 headset is backed by a five-year warranty and costs $1,095 or $995 - with or without the Bluetooth mobile phone connectivity feature. We guess using this for Starcraft II would be sort of a waste but we still want one.
