Looking for a good around-the-ear headset

[Dencity]

Before I go searching the depths of the internet for a good set, I was wondering if anyone could give me some suggestions. At the moment I'm using a set from Altec Lansing, and while the sound is good, they lay on my ears and hurt after long usage.

I have looked at the Turtle Beach ear force Z2 (I have the X31 for my Xbox), but I don't want to spend $70 if I can find a decent set for cheaper.

I find that headsets where the earpad swivels in all directions are far more comfortable than those which only move in one direction.

My Sennheiser PC 150's swivel in all directions, and sit on the ears. Never had any issue with them after two hours sessions.

I believe the PC 161 is the updated version.

yes for $170 that would be nice for OP but as he mentioned, less then $70.

Oh really (http://www.jr.com/sennheiser/pe/SEN_PC161/)? That's $60.

My Sennheiser 595's were expensive, and they don't have a mic, but they sound damn good, and i could wear them all day long and forget i even have them on.
