I'm by no means a high end audio nut.
I've been using the Plantronics-built stereo headset that came with the Microsoft Sidewinder Game Voice set. (The Game Voice is LONG gone)

I use this set quite a bit during the day, as my wife works nights and is sleeping, so the pads are wearing out.

I need a good replacement set that won't break the bank.
I'd like to max out the bill at $40.00 US

Decent stereo sound and a good mic?
Gaming communications/Music enjoyment for under $40.00?

if you liked the Plantronics, you can still stick with it.

are you looking for something better than what you had or similar?

I looked around and noticed most of my stuff is Logitech, so I'm looking at these:

I've always associated Plantronics with communications, and don't read great stuff about their stuff, so I'm not sure.

They look cool though!

that is why I was asking if you wanted something "better" or just the same. :)

I checked newegg and both of the logitech headsets are under $20 at newegg.
