This may seem like an obvious question, but I wanted to run it by some of you here to make sure I'm not missing anything.

I was going to purchase a pair of CommTac Defenders (the CommTac III without comms) for $280. Before committing to it, I found a pair of NIB CommTac III's with gel ear cushions, PTT adapter, case, etc. for $399. They look like they're part of a contract-overrun.

Anyways, I don't have a comms setup yet (I've been looking closely at the TRI 148/152), but at that price, is there any reason not to get the CommTac III's for $120 more? Or is there something about the Defenders that make them a more favorable/flexible option, knowing I don't have comms yet?
