Default Aviation Headsets

This may be a stupid question and I should already know the answer considering the time Ive spent with both. I have a David Clark aviation headset. Does anyone know if this is the same plug (i.e. will these work for recording headphones)? They're definitely stereo and sound quality should be pretty good as they incorporate noise cancelling...

Those headphones are designed to provide spoken vioce clarity in noisy enviroments. I would definitely NOT use them for studio work.

gpforet is right, they are not designed to provide flat frequency response. I have plugged in my Lightspeed, even used it to listen to my iPod, but outside an airplane, the audio performance is not spectacular. Not to mention how uncomfortable you will get with those things clamped to your head. You would be better off with a $50 pair of lightweight studio phones than your aviation headset.
