Headphones for Xbox 360

Hey guys, I appologise if this has already been answered but I did search everywhere and could not find a direct answer.

I am going to buy some new headphones for gaming just to give me the edge online, I know a few semi-pro's and they use Turtle beach X3's and say there brill but then others say Turtle beach X1's and then others have said dont get the wireless X4's with 5.1 as the sound is delayed to mimic the 5.1 so I'm kind of confused atm. I've even looked at Sennheiser HD 555 which have been hyped.

Atm i'm not to sure on a budget as it depends how much I can raise but I'm looking at spending anything up to £150 ish.

Any help on the better headphones would be great and if anyone can confirm that the 5.1 causes sound delays to mimic the effect along with wireless delays would be great.

Thanks in advance
