Wondering if anyone has traded up to the zulu,  especially if previously had the 3G's. If so, would like to know if you consider  them a real step up in noise reduction and comfort. Charlie  heathco

I  bought a Zulu to add to my 30G and two 20s.  The clamping pressure is  certainly less.  Noise attenuation is very good, but then the earlier LS  were pretty good already, so the step up isn't a big one.  The Zulu has a  little cleaner design with higher quality looking plastic than earlier  versions.  

  

 My  personal recommendation is I would make it mission dependent.  If you  fly long flights and don't appreciate the clamping pressure of earlier versions,  then the Zulu or Bose is probably worth the money.  If you do a lot of  local flying and the 30G or 20s are comfortable, I'm not sure I'd spend the  money on either the high end Zulu or Bose.  The difference in price will  buy you a couple tanks of gas...until the next price hike!

  

 Aviation Consumer had the  Bose and Zulu rated about dead even.   Depending on your use, they gave a slight edge to the Zulu because of its  Bluetooth capability.

Yes.  I was surprised at how much better they were  than the 3G I traded in.

I decided to upgrade to Zulu after trying them out in a demo at AC Spruce.  I have never really liked my 3G's -- they are too big and clunky.  The Zulu's are very comfortable and efficient.  Over the last 12 years, between my wife and I we've had most of the Lightspeed's except for the micro in the ear type.  The upgrade is $350 but they won't be shipping for several weeks.  I was just about to give up on Lightspeed and buy a Bose set before they came out with the Zulu.  My reason for  sticking with Lightspeed for so long was their warrantee, service, and plus upgrade policies. 



good luck
