## Description

Kore Aviation H1 is Built on the popular KA-1 General Aviation headset design, H1 is KORE AVIATION's first flagship Helicopter headset with built-in single U174 plug.

Review: I have had this headset for a year now, and honestly it is a great headset! I have flown in several aircraft and weather conditions, and have found that this headset works great! Yes, it is just a PNR headset. But that is okay! For clarity, I have used the low-priced David Clark H10 and a Telex, both PNR headsets. Also, I have used a Lightspeed ANR headset. First off, comfort. On long cross-country travel, I found the Kore to exceed my expectations both in fit and noise reduction. The padded top and the gel ear seal gave me greater comfort than either the David Clark or the Telex by far. The key to this is that the headset adjusted quite well for my round noggin. Now, this may be just because it is awesome, or like brands of motorcycle helmets one brand is better for your individual head shape than another. However I never got the Telex to fit right, and the DC headset was okay but not great as I have pretty friggin' large ears. The only negative I would have to say comfort wise is that the gel seals are good for cooler weather, but the covers (sold separately) are a must for me for warmer weather, as sweaty and sticky ear cups are not my cup of tea. But that alone will not cause me to lower my rating. Sound quality is also good, definitely beating the Telex. While it will not compare to ANR headsets in terms of noise canceling, it really makes a difference and allows me to hear the engine noise but still have a good conversation with my passenger. Plus, no batteries AND I did not spend $900 or more on a perfectly good but expensive headset! I am hoping to try this out in an open cockpit this summer, and will update my review for that purpose if that time comes. The only other thing that I realize I have never done as I am writing this is use the 3.5mm audio jack. If I ever decide to try this, I will update that as well. I think my only real negative is that the carrying case for the KA-1 really does only fit it and its cables, and quite snugly. Personally, I would prefer just a smidge more spacing in the case. But again, this is a very very minor inconvenience and definitely does not warrant lowering the rating at all. Overall, this headset has been so good for me that I have recommended this to new students, flight veterans looking for a low-cost headset for them or a passenger, or any pilot that I come across. Really. Again, each brand fits one's head differently, so my experience may not be the end-all be-all. However for me, this trusty, comfortable, and low-cost headset won me over from my first use, and has kept me pleasantly satisfied.
Review: Decent quality headset for the price, I use this for when I take passengers with me. Pretty basic no Bluetooth or ANR but works great. The flexible mic boom was one of the major reasons for me purchasing this. In the R22 (Helicopter) you can hear great even with doors off and mic does a decent job of blocking the background noise. For myself as a pilot I use the Lightspeed Zulu 3 with ANR but for passengers this works just fine and was a comfortable fit for them to wear.

This is a well-built passive helicopter headset that does exactly what it’s supposed to do. No gimmicks, no fluff, just solid performance where it matters. Comfort is the first thing that stood out to me. The gel ear seals are excellent and make a noticeable difference, especially in a loud helicopter environment. They seal well without excessive clamp pressure, so you can wear this for long flights without feeling like your head is in a vise. Over time, the padding starts to mold nicely, which only improves comfort. Audio clarity is very good for a passive headset. The noise-canceling mic does a solid job cutting background noise, and communication comes through clean with no static. The wiring and connectors feel robust, with a heavy-duty coiled cord and a snug, confidence-inspiring connection. This is a mono headset, which is standard for aviation. The AUX port works fine for audio input, though a stereo option would be a nice upgrade for music. That said, this is clearly designed as a professional aviation headset, not an entertainment device. In terms of value, it sits in a really nice spot. It’s not quite at the level of premium brands , but it’s far closer than the price would suggest. For back-seat passengers, simulator use, training, or pilots who want a reliable spare without spending a fortune, this is a very smart buy. Bottom line, this is a comfortable, dependable helicopter headset that offers excellent value and performance for the money. If you’re looking for a no-nonsense aviation headset that just works, this one is easy to recommend.
