AT SUN N FUN 2023, Bose announced the new A30 Aviation Headset.
Bose claims that the, "A30 is an entirely new product, designed to bring pilots the best combination of comfort, noise cancellation and audio clarity of any aviation headset on the market.
"The A30 features reduced clamping force for comfort, improved clarity and a new digital active noise reduction system that enables three modes of user selectable noise cancellation for use in different flight environments - a first for around-ear aviation headsets."
Matt Ruwe, a pilot and senior product manager for Bose says, "When we asked pilots what improvement was most important to them, their overwhelming response was comfort," he said. "We took that seriously and developed a new balance in the A30 with noticeably more comfort while maintaining and enhancing headset performance. The changes amplify the experience for our core A20 users while appealing to a broader range of pilots."
