my Logitech g230 just broke, I liked them very much especially the shape and how they gently caressed my ears, I'm wondering if there are any similar headphones that have a similar ear cup and better audio? I'm willing to spend about 150-200$ although I could probably do a bit more if it was particularly good. Thanks for any help!
Get headphones and a separate mic. Headsets are overpriced. With that money you should be able to get some good quality audio. A Zalman clip-on mic will do the trick, and you could invest more and get a modmic. You could also just get a desk mic, a lot of people use the Blue Snowball.
I haven't had a pair of high-end headphones myself, but i know sennheiser and audio-technica makes some good headphones.

This was posted in another thread recently and I agree with most of it

As far as headphones are concerned there is a lot of variety to choose from, you should do some research and decide on priorities (things such as open vs closed headphones, soundstage, mids, warmth, neutrality, etc.). Headfi is a good site to use as reference.

$200? man, don't get a headset.
for $200 you can get prince-quality headphones + seperate microphone.
no headset of $200 is gonna get you money's worth. no way.
i think tf.tv gets about one thread a day on headsets, and they all get the same responses:
unless you want something cheap, like <$20, it's worth getting separate pieces.
maybe we should have a sticky "Are you looking to buy a headset?"-thread.

Bucake

If the headphones were sticky I probably wouldn't want them.
Also the general advice seems to be to get a separate mic and headphone, what is a good headphones to get? Preferably with a cord and comfortable plus good audio.
