Looking for a headset?

Hello!  So, I've been without a headset for some time now as my (already once RMA'd) Vibrating Gaming Headset from Rosewill died out on me.  It's time for a new headset!  I have some things I'd like in a headset, and I was wondering if anybody knew of a one that would fit this criteria:
 

  • Circumaural
  • Won't make my ears hot! :)
  • 7.1, 5.1, even 7.1 virtual (if it's good?) surround sound
  • A solid microphone
  • Priced between $100-$200

Thank you very much :D

Hyperx Cloud i have them and they are amazing!

I heard that the Hyperx Cloud's microphone were very buzzy, that's the only reason i'm skeptical :/

get some good headsets - like audio technica ath-m50x and a modmic.

that's too far out of my price range :/

For me, yes, the mic is poor - but it depends what you need it for. If you just want to chat to your friends in-game, or Skype, it's fine. If you're looking to produce audio for something (youtube videos, college work etc) then you'll probably want a better mic.
