![]() I can actually link the Lightspeed Zulu’s to my Blackberry Storm and use the Lightspeed Zulu as a handsfree device! It didn’t take me too long to figure out this feature either. For example, my phone (the Blackberry Storm) is a bluetooth enabled cell phone. ![]() Bluetooth is a type of short-range wireless network that allows other Bluetooth equipped devices to share information and data. I was told by another Zulu owner that one feature I had to try out was the bluetooth connectivity feature. ![]() Almost too quiet (I kind of like a little engine noise…I get a little nervous when I think the engines have stopped). I could tell it was noticeably quieter than the Bose. I did turn the ANR on (the light (A) starts blinking green) and it suddenly got VERY quiet up front. Even with no ANR (active noise reduction) turned on, the headsets were very very quiet. I typically put on my headsets right after the engine start and I noticed almost immediately (very comfortable by the way) that the passive noise reduction was very impressive. My first flight using them was in the Beechcraft Premier, which has quite a bit of blower noise in the cockpit. I noticed the controller had some extra buttons that I wasn’t familiar with, but I’ll get to that in a second. The other thing I noticed about the headset when it arrived was Zulu’s controller. The magnesium gives the Zulu’s earcups plenty of rigidity and makes for an excellent sound barrier which means even when moving around the cockpit or turning your head, your going to keep the noise out. Take the ear cups for example, which I learned later are made from magnesium. Turns out the reason for the light weight is the construction from stainless steel and 4 different type of composite plastics. The Zulu’s arrived a couple days later and the first thing I noticed about them was the weight (13.9 oz.) They seemed very light and well made not flimsy, just solidly built.
