I say give them a try, I paid $85 for mine, they are okay on sound. I'd take a chance on them if I was you. Unless you can't afford to lose $20.

I would rather spend 15 bucks more and get these JVCs. 90% of 5.1 headsets are gimmicks and don't sound very good.
EDIT: Oh wait, you're in Australia... well if those phones are 20 Aussie dollars then I guess that sounds like a pretty decent deal.

Short answer: No
Long answer: Nooooooooooooooooooooooooo But seriously: "5.1 headsets" are a gimmick. They are often low quality and always overpriced. I would definitely recommend a nice pair of high quality stereo cans - as would 99% of people. I have owned 5.1 headsets in the past, and I can honestly tell you they are not worth it. They sound bad for music, they sound bad for games, they always break and they have constant driver issues.
