Headset wise, I'd recommend something else. Surround headsets all have two things in common: Weak drivers, and poor audio isolation. Weak drivers cause the audio to be poor, and the poor isolation means teh audio "jumps" as it moves from driver to driver within the earcup. Hence why many prefer virtualized surround on a stereo headset, which most soundcards have as a built-in feature now.

Hard to give a recommendation without a price. Soundcard wise, this is ASUS's product line:

Headset wise is harder. Really depends on the type of audio you listen to...

ok let me be more specific i listen to music alot 320k of course . and i watch
blu ray movies and series alot the audio in it is Dts not dts hd . i play alot of games almost all games so it is really important . i have 200$ may be 250$ for the headset
so i want a great one for all games the most important thing then movies then music .
the sound card i have for it 250$ max so i want a good one for music and gaming and movies i think and thanks for answering me
