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.

    • Might be the best but it's not great.
I'm a rotorcraft CFI and this review may seem like it doesn't make sense at first glance but allow me to explain. This very well might be the best aviation headset available but it's sincerely not great. It's most certainly NOT worth "upgrading" from a fully functional A20 to this A30. It's a side grade at best and a downgrade depending on your preferences. My A20 died after about 13 years of use recently and so I got the A30. The A30's mic cable doesn't hold it's position. It's not rigid like pretty much every aviation headset I've ever used. You will move it into position near your mouth and then it springs back an inch or so and progressively more over time. Very strange oversight for a $1300 piece of communications equipment. It's a heavy headset, equally heavy as the A20 with an even bigger control module. Why, after over a decade, have you not figured out how to make this thing lighter, smaller, with a smaller module? Carbon fiber is a thing and for $1300, it should be the only thing this headset is comprised of. The noise cancelling and audio quality is the same or worse than the A20. Also, begs the question, why? Incidentally, I own the Bose quiet comfort 2 ear buds and their noise cancelling and audio quality for $300 destroys that of the A30 at $1k more. These tiny ear buds have better controls, better audio, more features, and they're 1/50th the size and weight. Are the engineers in the aviation division of Bose not allowed to chat with the music consumer division? After about a 3 minute chat they would have figured out the A30 is outdated before they even released it for sale. There's no excuse for the cables to be this size and this heavy either. They made the mic cable lighter and less rigid but kept the same heavy gauge input cable.. I also hate the power button and Bluetooth button, this should be a hard switch given this giant control module with 3 hard switches on it. Everything they gave us new with this headset is severely over rated to useless. Adjustable hard switch for ANC intensity? Hard switch for Bluetooth volume? Spinning ear cups for all those cooked heads out their complaining about non spinning ear cups? I've ranted long enough. The Bose aviation team is pulling an Apple with this product and just living off their past reputation as being the best headset and made minor useless feature additions to lure customers into needlessly giving them another $1300 for the same thing they already have. It might be the best, but it's only half way up and the bar is very very low. ... show more

    • Don’t waste your money, A20’s are better
The digital noise cancelling is terrible. Sometimes it does not manage to block out noise, if you move around or move your head it struggles to cancel out noise. I have a weird buffeting noise and will only disappear if turning noise cancelling off. Sometimes I would also hear some weird pop or crackle and they could not help me troubleshooting this to a fix. I am trying to get it replaced with an A20 as I’ve h heard similar or same issues with several A30 owners. ... show more

    • A20s are better
The sound quality is not that great, there is a random "squealing" sometimes mid-flight which cannot seem to be resolved. They are lighter and more comfortable than the A20s but thats because they dont clamp down as hard so the noise cancelling for this reason is not as good. Overall I prefer the A20 over A30s. ... show more

    • Not worth upgrade form A20
Absolutely not worth upgrading from a20. There is little to no difference between the two models. This one actually had issues with active noise reduction where it would get caught in a feedback loop with itself causing a low bass note to be played. I love Bose but this was returned

    • Not great in helicopters
I bought these as an upgrade to my A20s, and was planning on using my A20s as a backup headset / second headset for passengers. I mainly fly helicopters (professionally), but also fly airplanes for pleasure (SEL). I purchased A30s when they first launched, put over 50 hours on them and returned them to Bose. They are TERRIBLE in the helicopters I fly. I am convinced Bose never tested them in helicopters. The noise cancelation seems confused, and I frequently would get random high frequency chirps out of them that seemed to corelate with rotor blade "pressure" waves in various phases of flight. Ive flown with A20s for over 3000 hours in helicopters, never had this issue with them. They are FANTASTIC in my single engine piston airplane. No complaints with noise cancelation / audio quality there. The control box is straight up cheap and should be completely re-engineered. It has no place on a $1300 headset. The rest of the headset is "nice", but they need to completely redesign the control box. After sending them back I'm still using my A20s without issue. If Bose decides to update these, I'll give them another shot - but they need to specifically say they worked on making them better in helicopters before I'm willing to try again... and that control box needs to be updated else they are not worth the $1300 price tag. ... show more
