Bose has the Bose Aviation-X - $995.00

I always use my Bose noise cancelling cans for CW operating but I am not sure I want to shell out $995.00 to get the microphone too!

Just try and work multi-2 SSB using Heil with the other OP less than 6 feet away "shouting", "NEGATIVE my call is delta delta five foxtrot zulu denmark denmark one two three four five florida zanzibar ..." I find it almost impossible. Most of the serious contesters here in southern and eastern Bavaria use passive suppression pilot headsets, so I'm not the only one who prefers them. I can see that the pressure on the ears might be a reason not to want to use this kind of headset. They are a fairly tight fit, but I still prefer them to every Heil Headset I have come across, because of the 25dB suppression. I would not call them a vise though.

PS: Panzerkopfhörer (e.g. for camera operators at rock concerts) are much less comfortable but have even more passive suppression of the surroundings. They are also very heavy.
