Features

  • Superior Quiet - Zulu 3 delivers advanced active noise reduction (ANR) performance over a deep, broad range of low-frequency noise. The magnesium ear cups are superior at blocking out high-frequency noise.
  • Low Profile Comfort - Weighing just 14.6 ounces (including ear seals and mic boom), Zulu 3 has a low-profile, stainless-steel headband that follows the curve of the head for more comfortable distribution of weight and side pressure.
  • Durability and Longevity Made almost entirely of stainless steel and magnesium with durable cables built around a Kevlar core Zulu 3 is designed to endure the harshest flying environments and last for years to come.
  • ComPriority Never miss important radio communications with patented ComPriority, which automatically lowers the volume of any auxiliary device during radio or intercom transmissions. The soft mute feature gently eases music back in for a smooth listening transition.
  • FlightLink Capture incoming and outgoing communications with Lightspeeds free FlightLink recording app for Apple iPad and iPhone via the supplied patch cable. This app is exclusively available on Lightspeed headsets.

  • Lightweight, comfortable, awesome noise canceling, worth every penny
Model: Zulu3 GA Dual Plugs
Great headset, comfortable, noise canceling is awesome....only minor complaint is at this price point $899)...why not include a premium name brand set of batteries. I just chuckled as I opened the packaging and found this premium headset with a set of batteries that were "lacking in premium stature" only thing I could see that would improve this purchase process. Seems silly I know.....but gosh...$900 for a headset with a set of 25 cent batteries...just made me chuckle a bit. ... show more

  • Amazing headset
Model: Zulu3 GA Dual Plugs
So far I’m only 2 flights in with it, but wow!! So far it checks all the boxes! I didn't want o spend $1400 for Bose A30s, or $1200 for the Lightspeed deltas. II’ve read reviews Bose is not supporting the A20s anymore so this seemed like a great option. Honestly I couldn't be happier! The noise canceling is amazing, headset is nice and loud, Kevlar wrapped cord seems great, and overall build quality feels nice and solid. Only worry I have is seems the ANR control box seems a little flimsy. Overall I’m super happy with this purchase and after using the loaners from my flight school this is a serious upgrade! ... show more

  • Good noise cancellation / High quality construction
Model: Zulu3 GA Dual Plugs
I bought a PFX previously and had to return it because of the problematic noise cancellation. The Zulu 3 retains the same high quality workmanship that I liked in the PFX, but the noise cancellation works fine. The cancellation does not seem to be as aggressive as the PFX. I am using these in a Van's RV-6. My cockpit is very loud with both low frequency engine noise plus high frequency wind sound. The Z3 does a very good job. The clamping force seems a fair amount higher than the Bose, and these headsets feel heavier than Bose. Neither is remotely objectionable. The higher clamping force is better, I think, for the higher noise environment. The ear cup is the largest I have personally used. My ears are pretty big, yet there is ample room. The headsets also work fine for music listening. I would not mistake them for even moderate quality audiophile headsets, but for listening to music while flying along, they are fine -- noticeably better than most. I did not do an A-B immediate comparison, but my perception is they sound a modest amount better than Bose. At this point, I have flown 10 hours with these headsets. Definitely happy with them. In contrast I have flown 500 hours with Bose headsets over the years. Bose are fine headsets, no question. I got the Lightspeeds instead of Bose because I think they are better for a really high noise environment, and the Lightspeed seems sturdier. For a quieter cockpit, I might get the Bose instead because of the lighter weight and lower clamping force. I am saying both those qualities without double checking the measured values for the two. That is just my subjective perception. ... show more

  • Great headset, comfortable, quiet cockpit
Model: Zulu3 GA Dual Plugs
Student pilot. The school provides some dinky el-cheapo passive headsets with their rental fleet. The school's headsets work but they clamp way too hard (hurts my ears) and are not durable (always falling apart). Had to buy a real headset to keep my sanity. The Zulu 3's are not cheap but they are well-constructed. They are incredibly light and you can barely feel them once you have them on. No idea how well the ANR stacks up to the competition but the cockpit of my SportCruiser was quiet and peaceful enough for me while wearing these. ATC and I can hear each other very well, no issues. My cockpit partner says I sound great as well. One negative I would say is that Bluetooth music sounds washed out but I didn't really buy these as audiophile headphones so I'm not going to dock any points. You should be more worried about your surroundings and flying the airplane than how well Taylor Swift sounds while you're on your XC. ... show more

  • Lightspeed Zulu 3 GA Aviation Headset
Model: Zulu3 GA Dual Plugs
If you are in the market for a top of the line General Aviation headset, the Lightspeed Zulu 3 deserves your consideration. The performance of this headset is superb and the company backs up the product with warranty, customer support, repairs, wear item replacement (at cost), and more. The only other headset in the same ballpark is the Bose and they are even more expensive. Has Bluetooth connection plus auxiliary cable connection so you can use your phone or listen to music, with options for priorty of incoming calls or headset activity. ANR sound attenuation is startling in effectiveness. Mic bias/gain is adjustable. Earpads quite large, soft, comfortable, superb quality materials. Interchangeable top head strap cushions for different head sizes or clearance issues with cockpit headroom. The volume/control pod is well made, works well and is well designed. It even has an option to reduce the brightness of the LED indicators for night time use. The Zulu 3 is a pleasure to use in every way and makes flying - even in loud GA aircraft - a pleasure. The one downside to this kind of quality is the price. To be honest, it should not be priced as high as it is, but it is hard to argue with how well it performs... ... show more

  • airplane headset
Model: Zulu3 GA Dual Plugs
Been flying for 50 years and have owned numerous headsets. This is by far the best built, noise canceling and sound charity set I've ever owned. The chord doesn't kink up and the control allows precise sound volume adjustments for clear and distinct hearing as your ears diminish with age ha I bought a set for a pilot relative and they love it as well. Well worth the expenditure. ... show more
