This is the top of the line Avation Headset in ANR
performance designed for the quality conscious consumer. The PA-1779T
takes full advantage of closer tolerance military components providing an
additional 18-22dB of active noise cancellation at 100 Hz.
This headset is the only self-contained ANR
(batteries are in the headset vice external) in the industry
with a rechargeable nickel metal hydride (NiMH) battery and wall
charger.
The PA-1779T Aviation Headset has Auto On/Auto
Shut-off proprietary circuitry. The ANR will shut-off automatically
when unplugged from the aircraft or the master switch is turned off.
This conserves battery life. The headset will
automatically turn on when it is plugged in and the radio is turned on.
There is a manual override On/Off switch on the headset to activate the
ANR to function when the unit is not plugged into the aircraft.
The headset is fitted with a sheepskin fleece head
pad and our proprietary twin-layer silicone gel ear seals (30% less weight than
normal gel ear seals.)
The headset is equipped to be cell/satellite phone
capable, and has a “true stereo” input jack so that the user can listen to music
from a CD player, IPOD®, MP3® or external radio. A custom padded
protective case is included with your headset.
We at Vertical
Avionics fly with this headset. Based on three decades of
experience in military and civilian aircraft, this headset has our highest
recommendation.
