Replacement headset for a medusa 5.1

[dazza13]

My medusa's are starting to lose sound quality now so am looking to replace them they are old have had them for 3+ years of constant use. Also i'm looking for some thing a bit smaller.

Requirements are has to have a microphone attached and for them to be as silent as possible for any one listening externally (ie the wife won't be able to hear me fragging my mates)

Any suggestions, not sure i'm that bothered about going 5.1 again.

Edit: will be connecting them to my X-Fi XtremeMusic

Never mind looked through the forum found some posts already on this.

Think I'm going to get the Sennheiser PC-151, can any one confirm that they are closed cans? as only me being able to hear what is going is a must.

According to the specs on OcUK:

Closed-back ear capsules to reduce background interference

They look very similar to the PC160's I used to have. I found the quality of the sound and mic to be good but they were uncomfortable and pretty poorly built (although not as poor as P90's).
