Upgrade from Razer Tiamat 7.1

G'day Forum!

Now, for the last few years I've been using the Razer Tiamat 7.1 headset, and it's served me very well over the last few years
However, like everything Entropy has taken its toll, its a little rattly from the bass, its crackly in the mids and now the head band is snapped, so its time for a replacement!

I'm looking for a Wireless Headset thats in 7.1 surround, around the $200 - $250 or even $300 AUD at a stretch, I do NOT need a microphone in the headset, as i use an Audio-Technica AT2020 for all my audio capture, as i not only game on my computer but i also do a moderate amount of Video and Audio production

I was thinking the Logitech G933 personally, as it was wireless, 7.1 and RGB and the reviews had it as a very decent headset
I also saw the Corsair Void Gaming Wireless headset, i wasnt such a fan of that, because the reviews had it performing under the G933 and i wasnt a fan of the look of them

Is the G933 any good in your opinions?
What do you guys recommend? - I'm open to any suggestions, but I am pretty firm on trying to save a few bucks if i can.

Why don't you get headphones then?
