I've done a little research myself and this is the best I found so far meeting my demands:

Could you recommend any other headset for an 80€ budget?

I want a headset that supports real 5.1-7.1 surround sound, so I can localize any incoming sneaky bastard from every angle.
In my opinion, a virtuall surround sound works better than real surround sound. First I had this one here: http://www.speedlink...id=25160&paus=1
But since a few months I use this one from Logitech: http://www.logitech....g/headsets/5095
--> It´s awesome but more expensive
At the end, I don´t think a real surround headset is automatically better than a virtuall surround sound. Also a friend of mine has the roccat kave, it´s not a bad headset but it doesn´t get close to the Logitech one (only around 100$ if you buy it on amazon).

Edit: @myname Why did stop using Medusa? Did it go broken? Because I've heard it has the feeling of a cheap manufactured headset.

Yeah i also think so but as u said im also not sure!!I think that I heard that even "pros" use stereo only, but not sure
Hmm, I'm still dubious whether virtual surround is better than real. I have no experience on none of them.
@myname: real sound is also very good. everyone takes the headset he wants

It can be of course
@Ellanios: I stopped using the headphone because I sold it to another friend, because he needed a new one and I wanted to buy a "high-end" headset instead of a middle class. Actually I don´t think it is broken since I buyed it maybe 1 year ago ^^. But another friend of mine had the headset to, but his stopped working (not broken) so he brought it back to the shop and changen it to the roccat kave. Anyway I can summ up something about the medusa:
+ it´s enjoyable to wear
+ the sound is good (extrem nice bass) especially for the "lower" prize of only around 45 €
+ the cable is using usb and it´s long enough (maybe 3m) but it´s curling in sometimes.
+ there is a special bag attached and the microphone worked fine for me too
- After some hours your ears maybe become hot
- Maybe not the best processing but I can´t remember something bad with my one (sold it in Summer)
- Not the best drivers
Well, another thing for the roccat kave... It´s not an usb headset and I can´t recommend jack plugs for gaming

Concerning roccat kave headset, a drawback of that headset is the weight of the multiple drivers due to the real 5.1 surround. Price ~84€(shipping costs included)
A cheaper alternative seems to be Creative Alpha(~54€), but I can't find enough reviews to form a crystal opinion.
