I'm always interested in securing an additional pair of David Clark headsets...
How much and which model?
Can you post pictures?

Good luck. The 10-76 sells new on eBay for $25-$50.
The Bose is non aviation.

Brand new Dave Clark's going for $25 on ebay?? I guess I'll hang on to them.
As for the PRU 57 headset, pretty sure it is for aviation...
A “variable family” nomenclature for the ANR
system has been established and designated as
“headset electrical,” active noise reduction,
PRU-57(V)/P. The four versions currently
on contract are the:
(1) HGU-55/P helmet version preliminarily
designated as PRU-57(V)1/P, (2) the headset
version preliminarily designated as PRU-57(V)2/P,
(3) the F-22 aircraft version preliminarily desig-
nated PRU-57(V)3/P and (4) the helicopter
helmet version.
Found them in a closet in a house I was renting a few years ago, just trying to get rid of them.

I thought the PRU-57 was a Military headset. Same as the DC 10-76.....

Pre-takeoff checklist
Yes Both are military headsets...The PRU-57s were OLD MIL issued sets, and they work...with a caveat. Both the DC10-76 and PRU-57s require the lo-hi conversion kits. An average user can pick one up for the PRU-57s for about $85 from various vendors. Be aware the PRU-57s are short wires (meant to be pluged into a conversion box for ANC use), so if you buy ensure you have a long conversion cable. The 10-76 requires the Single U-174 to GA plug conversion kit ($25) plus the Electro Mic for GA ($50-70) to make it GA OR buy the David Clark lo-hi conversion which is $135+.
All said...I would not suggest buying these headsets AS-IS without taking a consession on price or unless they are offered with the conversion kit. I have three heasets (10-76, 10-76X, and BoseX) that are all military converts..each cost me $80-90 to convert. Once converted they are just as good as other equivalent DC's like the 10-14 or 10-14X and the BOSE X.
