Looking for a new Gaming Headset

I've had a Logitech G35 for a few years, and I haven't had any problems with it before, but the right speaker has started to emit weird fizzling sounds every once in a while. While this is *okay* and I can get past it it, I would like to be aware of potential upgrades. If the audiophiles of the community could suggest a headset with a mic that is okay for music and good games and is under $175, I would appreciate it.

TL;DR: Gaming headset w/ microphone. Okay for music. Under $175

Thanks!

Please watch the 'Make your Gaming Headset' videos made by Tek Syndicate. It should help you solve your problems.

Make your own for $50 or less

Those videos are really good, and personally if you muusstt go for a traditional headset I would recommend the HyperX Cloud. Or you could wait a little bit and get the HyperX Cloud 2 that comes out soon.

Thanks Orthonox and Tasmainia. I had completely forgotten about those videos, even though they are quite recent, perhaps CES had just grabbed my attention too much.
