A30 for the start of my career ?
I am beginning my ppl this September and my end goal is getting the cpl. I have around 3.5k in personal savings ( the ppl is paid by my parents) that I was think on using for the ATPL theory later on. But I saw the refurbished A30 on sale for $999 and I was thinking on getting them as investment. I saw a lot of negative feedback on the A30 but getting an A20 would cost the same and they are pretty hard to find and they usually dont have any warranty. I would like to ask some feedback from u guys thank u.
(Also should I get the LEMO and adapter or only the dual connector?)

There are varied opinions on this but my advice is use the school headsets. Spend every penny flying, ground schooling or on learning materials until you get your PPL.
I have seen so many students spend thousands on headsets, flight bags, charts, electronic flight bags, even clothing to never finish the curriculum. Any school or club is filled with notes on walls selling this stuff, from people for whom life got in the way.
Focus on the flying.

Yeah, take them. I have them and I like the A30. If you get the lemo version, buy the adapter as well unless you're absolutely sure you'll never need it
