looking for new headset

well the g430 hurts my ears after awhile because it was heavy and tight on my head, but i want a 7.1 so i can hear footsteps on csgo and other fps games
 
I would suggest to look into a pair of decent headphones and attatch a mic to them. Any pair of stereo headphones can support virtual surround software which is what Razer products use.

You can find a pair of good stereo headphones that will be better than a gaming headset in all ways. Comfort, sound/build quality, price, etc.
