Don't have to have top of the line.
Consider used headsets. I got a Zulu 2 used from an avionics shop for an excellent price. It is much better than what I could buy new for the price.

I converted two David Clark 10-H30 passive headsets into ANRs via the Headsets, Inc. ANR conversion kits -- easy to do, relatively cheap and they work very well.
I believe the instructions for the ANR conversion specifically require you to remove the original foam from the earcups, don't they? If so, that renders the passive attenuation much less effective. That said, I did the conversion. It works very well, but is my backup headset since it is not as comfortable as others.I did the same conversion with the ANR kit from Headsets, Inc.
Great noise reduction, and excellent bang for the buck. Plus you get the added passive attenuation from the David Clark.
