Does anyone know of a site or company that sells reconditioned Bose headsets?

Anyone know if this adapter is required in order to use Bose headset using ship power with an oxygen mask+mic? Or can I just plug the oxygen mask's mic into the standard mic jack while the headset is on the lemo jack? In other words, which mic takes priority when a mic is plugged into both jacks? http://www.pilot-usa.com/adapters/bose-adapters/pa-100b.html

I'm in the market for a used Lightspeed Zulu 2. Bose X, Bose A20's, or Clarity Aloft classics would be of interest too. PM me if you have a pair (or two) for a fellow Mooney pilot.

Well I finally bought the Bose headsets and had a chance to use them today. Man do I love these headsets! The problem is that I thought I would hand down my soft com noise canceling to my wife. When we plugged them in today all I heard was a loud squelching noise and I assumed that the headsets weren't getting along! I also had a cheap ANR light speed set that did the same thing .can someone share with me what headsets they use that are comparable to Bose? We did use some David Clark's with the Bose and it worked fine. I would like to buy a nice set of ANR for my wife can someone tell me what to get so I wouldn't be waisting my time and money? Thanks,

A couple years ago I decided to leave the world of tried-and-true David Clark behind and find an ANR headset. Being frugal I settled on refurbished Lightspeed Zulus I purchased from Aircraft Spruce at a great price. I loved them so much I bought another set from eBay, which was a risk. It turns out that just a couple weeks after the eBay purchase they started to short out. One of the reasons I chose Lightspeed over Bose was I kept reading stories about their customer service. Last week I called them up and gave them the story of my eBay headset. Very nicely a kind gent explained to me that they no longer made the Zulus but to send them in. If it was a major repair they could not make they would offer me a major trade-in discount on a new set of their latest product. First, I was amazed he even talked to me since I was not the original owner and I bought them off eBay. If they were bad, it’s not Lightspeed’s problem. Right? So I packed them up and sent them off UPS at my expense. Today I received them back. They replaced the cords and the control box, put in a new battery and put on a new windscreen. It took one hour of labor. They serviced an out-of-warranty no longer produced headset I bought off of eBay and they did it for free. Basically they made my problem their problem. Given this level of quality customer support I felt compelled to give them this glowing PIREP. Six stars out of five!
