Hi guys, recently my headset (SteelSeries Siberia V2 Heat Orange) has been having some sound problems on the right side, so it's basically dying, I already have them since around November 2013 and on that time they were really "pricy".
So basically I'm asking for suggestions about headsets that aren't too much pricy but have good quality, how so?
Something that if possible is cheaper than the headset I had (120€) but has better or same quality after this 3 years. And that keeps confortable after much use. My siberia "pillows" are already "weak" cause I use them much time during the day and after all this time of use they already leave my ears hurting a bit.
I use glasses when I am home instead of lenses so that's a bit of the reason they would be less confy.

TL;DR: Suggestions about best headsets in terms of price/quality that are confortable and have the same or higher quality than SteelSeries Siberia V2 that I had (if possible). And if possible that wouldn't pass the 100€ mark this time please.

Regards

Yes, you can add one of these: http://amzn.to/1R0wkvd or http://www.modmic.com/

The sound quality from a good headphone set is generally much better than gaming headsets.

This. I agree, and I also find overall physical build quality is better on headphones for a given price range. How many of us here have had "gaming" headsets physically break in a year or two? I went through several over a 3 -4 year period before I bought a surround (virtual) adapter and a decent pair of headphones and a cheap microphone that I strapped to the headband. That was over 3 years ago and still going strong. I spent quite a bit (for me) at the time but I haven't spent a penny more since, so for me, it was worth the investment.

The best part is when I first got this setup, some of the people I played with regularly (mostly CoD) briefly wondered if I was suddenly hacking or cheating, but the fact is I was hearing them clearly in game before they heard me.
