I've been looking at wireless headsets to purchase for use with my eventual gaming desktop, but it seems like all of the recommendations go to ones in the $200+ price range. Are there any quality gaming/music headsets in the sub-$150 price range, maybe even in the sub-$100 range? I'm no audiophile, but high quality, crisp sound would be awesome, and it'll need a USB receiver since I won't have Bluetooth capability.

Features preferred:

Microphone (okay quality will be fine, don't care about detachability)
Headset-located controls (volume, Mic-mute)
Decent noise-cancelling ear cups (both out-to-in sound and vice-versa)
Preferably no active noise cancelling
Preferably 10+ hours of use before recharge
Dolby 7.1 Surround with accurate positioning (for FPS footstep locating, stuff like that)
A decent range of use (within a room or two)
Sturdy construction

Is there anything good like that in the price range?

The Corsair Void 7.1 Wireless is pretty good now that they've patched out a lot of issues. I used to have a heck of a time connecting/paring it with the dongle, but they've simplified it greatly through patching.

Great mic quality, awesome 7.1 surround sound, and there is a volume up/down lever (not a wheel) on the left side of the headset.

Hours of use before charge, with RGB indicators off, about 9-10 hours but you can use the headset while it's charging if needed.
