Default Best headsets for a CRJ

I fly CRJ-200's and recently my Clarity Alofts broke any recommendations for a new pair of headsets.

Bose A20 Aviation hands down! Worth every penny.

Don't they have pretty good customer service? Use some cheap headset until it has been fixed.

What broke in your Clarity's? For most things you can send them in and get them repaired or replaced for free.

when I stepped out of the flight deck I tripped and they got thrown in to the middle of the aisle and PAX stepped on them. They didn't even pick them up and give them back to me they walked right past me I tried to stop them in the plane but it was too crowded, when I got out in to the terminal I thought I could find him without going out of my way but in the busy DTW terminal that is hard . I will discuss with support and see what happens.

That is sickening... it is amazing how pax develop the stampede mentality once the deplaning begins.

I occasionally have to attempt to hold them up so I can make my exit to do the walkaround, often enlisting the FAs help.

THe majority of the time they do not slow down one bit and just keep coming like a slow moving zombie train. I can definitely see how your headsets would get run over and the pax not even know or care for that matter.

Just curious what you would have said had you caught him? "Hey, you stepped on my headset that I threw on the ground."

The stampede mentality develops because they've just flown on a CRJ 200.

FWIW, I had the QC15 and UFlyMike combo, and I loved them. However, one day one of the ear pieces stopped working. They were only about a year and a half old. My biggest complaint with them was that they never seemed very durable from the start and headsets are used very harshly. I have decided that I will not get another pair. I think I am going to get the Clarity Aloft or Quiet Technologies Halo.

Yeah. Today's RJ passengers have forgotten what it was like to ride on, (or have never ridden on) the commuter aircraft of yester-year: B-1900, Jetscream, Shorts, Metroliner, Beech 99 or EMB-100, ("The Bandit"). They're a spoiled bunch.
