Wireless Gaming Headsets

Maybe it's my custom viewing setup, but I couldn't see a 'search' box....

 

NeWay, I'm casually looking at gaming headsets as I tend to work most the day and my game time is when everybody else is sleeping. This includes 6 K9s that like to wake everybody up if there's noise.   >.<  I've seen things like Astros, Titan, etc, but while I don't want to spend $5M on a headset, I'm lookin for something with true surround sound, IE: atleast 5.1. Keep in mind that I have a PS3 (slim), 360 (H4 edition), and Wii-U so if it could work on ALL, then I'd be happy. Note: the 360 and U both have headphone ports on the controllers if we HAD to go that route. I'm not 100% concerned about the U right now either as it's in a different room from the other systems.

My Concerns:

- I've seen that some connect using RCA jacks and (unless I've been wrong for a looong time) that's just not true surround sound.

- I'd rather go with pure wireless as I found it was quite annoying to have the headset plugged into my 360 controller. I tried to make amense with a MSFT BT headset, but that's bloody annoying.

- I know these will be expensive, but I Would like to keep all my limbs during the purchase.

This is a good wireless headset, most good ones cost 100+ usd. This is great because it uses the optical audio part which ps3 and 360 should have. Not sure about the wii U

The U is strictly HDMI if I remember right. No RCA (out of the box) for sure. I'd like to be able to have both connected to the base station at once, but I'm not sure if you can split optical that way and maintain integrity. At the same time, I'm wondering if it'd be better just to stick with the good Sony headset and skip the other systems for now.

logitech g930 is pretty nice. I have it

I glanced at it, but it looks like a strictly PC unit, not for consoles. Maybe I'll find more info somewhere else than their site.

Crap, I just thought about another concern. I have both 2.4Mhz and 5Mhz setups in the house. I believe the 2.4s are running on chans 1 and 11, but the 5 is set to auto as only my PC uses that. I had to replace the house phones because they would block my PC. That raises the concern of signal interference being so close together. IE: less than 3-6ft.
