well good zenheisers will work the hd202-205 205 is good, costs usually 219 bucks or so but some dealers like soni will cut a large ammount off the things by default, and if you buy something else they will cut loads more off it, I got a digital recorder for 100 from about 150 and the headphones for 090 from about 119 bucks. With storage bag so they don't break. these are not surround sound per say but they are bigger, and allow the full effect of the soundcard. Now if you got say a soundblaster 5.1 card and the system to go with it then your sets whould work with it. I know zarmon sell surround sound phones I think but the bigger they get the more likely they will break, I kept losing 40 buck sets all the time.
