I have tried them all.

If you are using a 1960's era Gentex SPH it's time for an upgrade.

Gallet is light and works great till you need glasses. Unless they are face hugging you may not be able to use the close in visor.

I went to an Alpha Eagle a couple of years ago and absolutely love it. It looks clunky but dosent feel clunky. Excellent noise supression... you can get it so snug no ear plug are required.

As usual be sure to try on before you send your money in. It seems the prices have doubled in the last few years.

One company out there allows pilot to purchase new helmets at 50% off, and pay the remainder over 12 month payroll deduction. Pilots are then reaponsible for repairs going forward, taking the helmet duties away from the employer. A win/win for everyone concerned.
