I'm looking for a new speaker setup for my pc, but i really want a wired remote that has a headphone AND microphone socket.

Can anyone recommend anything in the £30 to £80 range.
Mostly be gaming with a little music listening to as well, i tend to use my headphones for Counter strike and other fps games as i like to react sound in game. Never had a 5.1 setup before but i have just moved house and i now have a dedicated pc room :) so i get to setup the speakers behind me if i need them.
 
i take it by the lack of reply that no-one knows of such a setup ? or is my price range un-realistic ?
 
The headphone socket is quite common, but the mic is very unusual. I think you might be best getting a mic extension (use a headphone extension cable) to bring the mic socket to where you need. It isn't as neat, but doesn't limit your choice so much. For your budget, definately go with 2.1. If you can strech to it, the Logitech Z-2300 are good. Otherwise, I believe the Creative I-Trigue 2.1 3400 are reasonable (I hope somebody can confirm this :confused: ) and those are currently on offer :) . Also look at the Logitech Z-4 set.
