I have a  couple of Lightspeed 15xc's which work just fine.  At $350 USD, 
the  price wasn't bad, either. Don't know if they are still available,  
though...

Hey Jeff,

I will echo what you've said about Lightspeed. I have a set of 20XL's and  
I've been using them almost daily for about 5 years now. They were under  
$400/ea from Spruce. I've used them both with the Europa/Jabiru and the  
Ximango/Rotax and they work equally well. I've also used them in a Pawnee,  
Citabria,

C-210, Navion and a T-6 excellent results. Battery life  for the ANR seems to be

in excess of 40 hours on two AA batteries. I  once broke part of the earpiece 
after sitting on it and Lightspeed sent  replacement parts at no charge. 

My only gripe is the audio quality from my XM radio isn't the best,  IOW, not 
enough bass response. However, after looking at the schematic  for my 
Flightcom intercom, the lack of bass in the audio probably has  more to do with
the 
size of the capacitors they used in the intercom as opposed  to a problem with

bass response in the the 20XL's. I would highly recommend  Lightspeed headsets.
