ZULU HEADSET BY LIGHTSPEED
|
 |
| |
A Whole New Look
The new Zulu headset looks different because it is different. Made with
magnesium, stainless steel, and four types of composite plastics, it's
extremely durable and yet weighs just over 13 ounces. Inside the headband
is a core of thin, flexible spring steel, which gives an excellent fit
with 40% lower side pressure than the 3G series. Luxurious, soft leather
surrounds 'extra wide' ear seals made from temperature sensitive foam.
Your ears have more space and greater comfort. Calibrated magnesium sliders
adjust ergonomically to accommodate your exact head size with uniform
pressure. The vented headpad evenly distributes the weight of the headset.
All wiring is fully concealed using patented design features, and Zulu
folds flat for easy storage.
Magnesium Alloy Improves
Passive Performance
When it comes to reflecting airborne acoustic waves, magnesium's physical
properties are superior to any plastic. Magnesium reflects 10 times more
sound than plastic cups while being both stronger and lighter. By itself,
magnesium resonates sound. But our engineers created a clever design that
uses the sound reflecting properties of magnesium and the damping properties
of plastics to provide an optimally quiet experience.
This allows the Zulu ear cup to be half the thickness of the traditional
design. Yet it has a superior, rigid barrier for attenuation.

Bluetooth® Compatibility
Bluetooth® allows Zulu to connect wirelessly with your cell phone, MP3
player, or other compatible device. The wireless phone interface with controls
are embedded into the battery box, allowing easy switching between phone
and music inputs.
The audio quality is excellent, providing full stereo sound with the all
the richness of Zulu's FRC audio system.
Audio Quality That Puts You
"Front Row Center"
Audiophile Components
It's so quiet in a Zulu headset, you can actually appreciate fine audio.
Fortunately, our design team included musicians and audiophiles. From the
start we intended to set a new standard in clarity and fidelity. Typical
aircraft headset designs set the bar of distortion at perhaps 1%. By using
audiophile components at every point, Zulu's distortion is one tenth this
amount.
Here are just a few of the premium components we insisted on:
- Gold contacts for all wire connections provide both long term connection
integrity and preserves the audiophile potential of the rest of the signal
path.
-
High
Grade audio quality film capacitors are used
throughout the signal
path.
The Best Active Noise Reduction
We've Ever Made
Because of it's unique earcup design, Zulu has more total noise cancellation
than any headset on the market. Simply put, you get broader noise attenuation
over the entire audible range. Rather than concentrating purely on cutting
decibels, our engineers looked at how pilots perceive noise at different
frequencies. Their goal was to make the Zulu feel so much than any other
headset, that when someone put it on, the first words would be "Wow".
They worked on cutting the most sound at the amplitudes that are perceived
by your ears as the noisiest. They discovered that a 3dB cut at one frequency
makes a bigger difference than 10dB at this frequency at another.
The result of their work is a headset that really is noticeably quieter
than any we or anybody else has ever made. You put on the Zulu and your
first word is "Wow."
