The popular Zulu headset now has several new added features, Lightspeed Aviation said this week at Sun ‘n Fun in Lakeland, Fla. The innovations, some of which are patent-pending, include microport vent technology that provides greater consistency in the active noise reduction capabilities, anda new lighter design for improved fit and less side pressure. A dual aperture disc microphone adds more voice clarity and improved noise canceling, Lightspeed said. Dealers are taking orders now for the new headsets, which will start shipping by early July.

The Zulu technology provides clear, crisp audio with greater noise rejection for clear, intelligible communications, the company says. Bluetooth connectivity and an integrated auxiliary input provide compatibility with a range of music players, cellphones, and audio devices. Allan Shrader, president of Lightspeed Aviation, said he’s proud of the original Zulu headset, which was introduced just three and a half years ago. “Now, we’ve simply taken a great headset and made it even better,” he said. If you’re at Sun ‘n Fun this week, you can check out the new headsets at the Lightspeed booth in Hangar D.
