Overview

The most comfortable, most durable headset Lightspeed has ever made.

  More comfortable

  • Plush ear seals provide 20% more surface area than competitors, for a better seal around glasses frames and a more comfortable distribution of side pressure
  • Larger cup cavity provides 50% more space for your ears, allowing the entire ear to fit comfortably inside, while preventing the pain caused by seals pressing against the edge of the ear
  • Low-profile stainless steel headband follows the curve of the head for more comfortable distribution of weight and side pressure
More durable
  • Rugged cables built around a Kevlar core deliver more strength and flexibility with less weight than standard cables
  • Nearly 100% of the headset is made from stainless steel and magnesium
  • Magnesium ear cups are both strong and light, while delivering superior high-frequency noise attenuation
More clarity
  • The Dual Aperture Disc™ microphone provides greater noise cancellation for clearer, more intelligible communications
  • Exclusive, user-adjustable mic gain helps balance loud and soft voices in a multi-headset environment
  • Front Row Center™ (FRC), stereo cross-feed technology, and redesigned speakers deliver crisp, rich audio and unparalleled music fidelity
Lightspeed performance

Very nice headset. I have two David Clark ANR headsets currently. This one is slightly cheaper and seems to fit my head better. The ANR function is exceptional.

These did not disappoint! As good as the best out there and, as other reviews on the web suggest, the foam ear cushions on this model are exceptionally effective at making a tight seal around glasses. Headset is very comfortable to wear.

Upgraded from a U fly mike system, which I was never really happy with. Seems the Bose headsets that system uses just aren’t really up for loud aviation use. So, the Lightspeed Zulu 3’s really are as advertised! Excellent upgrade, no air/ noise leakage, and the split in the top works great wearing any baseball hat I have! Love them so far. Only thing is, wish the mike could be dual side mounted instead of always on the same left side. But that’s a minor point.

Q&A

Please note, Pilotshop.com's personnel are not certified aircraft mechanics and can only provide general support and ideas, which should not be relied upon or implemented in lieu of consulting an A&P or other qualified technician. Pilotshop.com assumes no responsibility or liability for any issue or problem which may arise from any repair, modification or other work done from this knowledge base. Any product eligibility information provided here is based on general application guides and we recommend always referring to your specific aircraft parts manual, the parts manufacturer or consulting with a qualified mechanic.

Q: I have had many Lightspeeds over the years, I have a ZULU 1 now and it has performed great. My question is, is there any difference in the noise cancelling of the 3 compared to the 1? See you at S-n-Fun Bob Stebbins

Yes, the noise cancellation capability did improve slightlyu from the Zulu 1 to the Zulu 2. The Zulu 3 has the same noise cancellation capability as the Zulu.2, however the improved ear seals on the Zulu 3 will provide a better fit and seal.

Q: Can the mic boom on the Lightspeed Zulu 3 Headset be changed to the other side?

No, the boom mic cannot be swiveled all the way around. The boom mic will be on the left side of the head.

Q: Do you offer a trade in discount for a old set of Lightspeed headset?

Yes, we do. Please search "Lightspeed Trade" on our website to see the trade in options we have. The first two results pages will show you the current trade in values for your model headset.

Q: Are the seals one size fits all for Zulu 1, 2, & 3 ?

Yes, the ear seals part # 11-08043 will fit all 3 generations of the Lightspeed Zulu 3 headset.

Q: I have two of the Lightspeed 30 3G panel power by LEMO connector headsets in my RV-9A. Can I get two Zulu 3’s with the same panel power setup?

Yes, the part number for the 6pin Lemo version of the Zulu 3 is Part# 11-14870.

Q: Can the ear pieces on the Zulu 3 be folded inward for storage which I believe they can on the previous models (or so they would appear from the photos of the previous Zulu)

No. The ear pieces twist sideways for storage but they do not fold inwards.

Q: Lightspeed Zulu 3 LEMO, if this headset with LEMO plug has also posibility to power from batteries? In my plane i have LEMOs, but if i want to take headset to plane without LEMO and connect them thru GA-LEMO adaptor, i need to power them by AA batteries.

Yes, that is correct. If you use a LEMO Zulu 3 in a dual GA aircraft with an adapter, you would need batteries to power the ANR.

Q: Regarding the Lightspeed Zulu 3 headset, does it require any sort of adapter to connect via the bluetooth with a cellphone?

No, the Bluetooth functionality is built into the cable assembly.

Q: Is this Lightspeed Zulu FAA TSO approved?

Per the manufacturer, they are not TSO approved. However, All Lightspeed headsets are tested to FCC and CE certifications, internal environmental standards, Apple MFi program standards (if required), and meet performance requirements of the FAA to be used in any civil aircraft.

Q: I received my new LightSpeed Zulu 3 Headset yesterday. Does my free survival kit arrive separately?
