Hi there,
I'm just about to start flight school and i've purchased a headset. I found a deal that was too good to pass up on Ebay and grabbed a David Clark One-X however it's the XM model with a U174 plug.
A quick search online brought up a list of U174 (US NATO) to twin-GA adapters so I assumed this would be fine, however having made a few calls this morning it sounds as though it's not quite that straight forward.
I think at the very least I need a low impedance to high impedance converter, but my question is has anybody else had to deal with this before? Specifically with David Clark? And do you know if I can use any old low to high impedance or does it have to be David Clarks own brand? The majority just seem to be sold from the States and struggling to find the right one stocked in the UK?
Any help or advice would be appreciated by a newbie to the aviation world just looking to get set up before day one.
