need help choosing a decent pair of headphones/headset.

which headset would be best for gaming and music? i'd like them to have a mic for gaming, but be able to play music well too (ie i dont really want a pair of headphones which have borked audio levels designed for hearing footsteps).

i have a pair of Sennheiser CX880s for my iPod, so im not worried about portability, so the headset/headphones will be for use with my Laptop/PC.
im not too concerned about wireless vs wired either as i can loop he excess cable around the back of my laptop.

i currently have these cheap and cheerful ones, but i want to replace them and have them as a back-up pair:

any ideas?

I got a pair of Rocketfish GUV-1202's on sale, just picked em up on a lark. I was surprised how good they were. They have a wireless transmitter (I use it on my xbox) or you can connect them directly (use for PC) as well as having a removable mic and pretty damn good sound quality. I use em for my iPhone too.

soon...

for the cost,turtle beach x12s are like 40 bucks on amazon now I believe,they're decent I think. Then again I'm no audio snob or anything. But I mean compared to alot of pc headsets,etc they look like chumps

I've had these cheapo in-ear RCA headphones for a year now and I think they're amazing considering they only cost 5 dollars >__>

those are the ones i have for my iPod.

you mean the A50's that cost £250? of which i have 100? XD

Well, if you're on a budget...

These are awesome:

And then just buy a clip on mic or some shit.

That's what I plan on doing.

They have extremely good sound and are ridiculously durable(except the leather earpeices which are replaceable). I'm using my grandpas which he bought at least 20 years ago.

^ those have some rave reviews.

if i get those ill have enough for GW2 and a new set of earbuds of the CX880s

might spoil myself and get the MDR-V6's, i haven't gone drinking much this week
