David Clark JET-X, XLR-5-Version

The David Clark DC JET-X with 5-pin XLR connector is an ultra-lightweight aviation headset featuring Electronic Noise Cancelling (ENC), specifically designed for professional and airline pilots. Weighing only approximately 128 g without the cable, it combines an exceptionally lightweight and compact Rest-On-Ear design with effective active noise reduction, excellent comfort and clear voice transmission.

David Clark's Electronic Noise Cancelling (ENC) technology effectively reduces distracting cockpit and aircraft noise. Integrated Digital Signal Processing (DSP) technology supports active noise cancellation while providing clear and high-quality audio reproduction for radio communications.

A key feature of the DC JET-X is its ultra-lightweight Rest-On-Ear / On-Ear design. Unlike conventional over-ear aviation headsets, the ear seals rest on the ears rather than completely surrounding them. This keeps the headset particularly lightweight and compact – a significant advantage for pilots who wear their headset for many hours at a time.

The soft leatherette ear seals with slow-recovery foam rest comfortably on the ears while helping to reduce heat build-up. The low-profile head pad features proven Outlast® technology, which absorbs excess heat. Its breathable and ventilated design provides additional comfort, particularly during long flights.

The rugged yet lightweight alloy suspension assembly is fully adjustable and designed to meet the demands of regular professional flight operations. Weighing only approximately 128 g / 4.5 oz. without the cable, the DC JET-X is one of the particularly lightweight active aviation headsets.

For clear voice transmission, the DC JET-X features a high-performance M-5B electret microphone with enhanced noise cancellation. The flexible microphone boom allows quick and precise positioning of the microphone directly in front of the mouth.

This version of the DC JET-X features a 5-pin XLR connector and can be powered directly by the aircraft's electrical system in appropriately equipped aircraft. Power is supplied via pin 5 of the XLR connector.

Please note that not all aircraft equipped with a 5-pin XLR connector provide the required power via pin 5. If aircraft power is not available or the headset is disconnected from the aircraft panel, the DC JET-X can be powered by one AA battery.

The integrated Auto Shutoff function helps prevent unnecessary battery drain when the headset is not in use.

The David Clark DC JET-X is FAA TSO-C139a approved and comes with a 3-year manufacturer's warranty.
