Which headset?

I have been trying to find a good headset/headphone for myself to game, listen to music and watch movies on.

I've narrowed my choices down to 2 which I couldn't decide which one to get.

1. Logitech G933

2. Astro A50

Price isn't a problem.

From reviews and stuff people say that the Logitech G933 is also good for music and movies while the Astro ain't THAT good (Idk if its true or noticeable).

But the Astro comes which a headphone stand which I would definitely want. I'm also fine with the battery life for both headsets so that isn't a problem too, I just don't which one to pick.

Help pls. Thanks

Whats your budget for a headset

you can prob get sennheiser 558's + a snowball or something

Or the Sennheiser Game One's which are basically the 558's with a mic.

So you don't need a headset. 

What's your budget?
