Telex Echelon 20 Headset

The Telex Echelon 20 Pilot Headset is synonymous with performance and durability in general aviation. Designed to meet the demands of pilots, it offers an exceptional combination of hearing protection, communication clarity, and unparalleled comfort for the longest flight days.

Superior Hearing Protection and Clear Communications

The Echelon 20 provides impressive passive noise protection of over 20 dB, essential for reducing hearing fatigue in the noisy cockpit environment. Complementing this protection, it incorporates a high-quality noise-cancelling electret microphone, designed to ensure the clearest possible transmission of your voice, guaranteeing reliable and crisp communications.

Customized Comfort for Long Flights

Comfort is a priority in the Telex Echelon 20's design. It features a low-profile headband that ensures even weight distribution, eliminating pressure points and allowing for comfortable flying for extended periods. The patented ComfortCam™ technology is a three-click tension adjustment system that allows for a personalized fit, eliminating the need to clamp the headset, no matter how long it's worn. Additionally, the special earcups with foam seals pivot in two ways to conform to any user, while the brake sliders adjust the headband for a perfect fit. The new slow-recovery, heat-sensitive foam ear cushions form a secure yet comfortable seal, even around sunglasses. Created from a unique material, these cushions have the luxurious feel of lambskin, but are much easier to keep clean.

Robust Design and Quality Materials

Durability is key for any aviation equipment. The Telex Echelon 20 features an impact-resistant headband design with stainless steel reinforced stress points, which ensures greater durability and lightness. This robust design guarantees that your headset will withstand constant use and the demands of the aeronautical environment.

Versatile and Precise Microphone

The boom microphone allows for smooth and precise adjustment, ensuring you can position it exactly where you want it for superior transmission clarity. Furthermore, it easily converts to a left or right orientation and stays in place, providing flexibility and consistent performance.
