In terms of weight I totally forgot I had them on in my flight.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Noise Reduction is fantastic and they <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">don&#8217;t<\/span> crush you&#8217;re head to achieve it either.   I found the standard ear pads to be good, but I&#8217;m glad I got the gel one&#8217;s.  Fit those and it&#8217;s another level of comfort.    <em>Add the gel ear pads to your order and you&#8217;ll still pay less than a set of H10-13.4.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;d recommend them because they weigh so little and their noise reduction is excellent&#8230;&#8230;.but why I&#8217;d really recommend them is because their sound reproduction is superb, I mean truly clear.<\/p>\n<p>They are never going to match a set of studio monitors, let&#8217;s be honest about that, they&#8217;re impedance matched for an aircraft system so you won&#8217;t get the same raw volume if you tried.   But in terms of frequency response, I&#8217;d believe the figures on the box any day, I tried them using some separate kit and their top and bottom end frequency response is sooo very good.<\/p>\n<p><strong>My worries about Microphone Boom Arm Radius:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Forget them<\/span>, you can&#8217;t notice the boom arm in flight at all.
