Alright, as someone who has tried most of the recommended methods over the years (I have a giant head and keep searching for the perfect fit), I'm gonna throw in my two cents (mostly so I can link back to this later when new threads pop up):
HyperX Cloud Silver - Not bad at all. Got these for $50 on Prime Day and I'm pretty happy with them so far. The "silver" variant has in-line volume and mute controls, and is pretty much the version branded for Xbox One minus the control dongle. They sound good, the mic quality doesn't seem bad. The faux leather earpads get pretty warm, though, so I had to get some Brainwavz velour pads to balance that out.
ATH-AD700 + ModMic - the second-most comfortable headphones I've ever owned (and maybe the best sounding) + the highest quality mic, but kind of a sloppy solution overall. Not wild about having to ziptie the ModMic cord to the headphone cord, and the adhesive that sticks the mic to the headphones falls off constantly. They sound great though!
Astro A40s + Wireless MixAmp - ah, my first headset. The wireless MixAmp sorta isn't a thing anymore, now that they're built into the A50s. Mostly just writing to say that these are pretty uncomfortable if you have a big head and kinda overrated, especially given the price. I only really still hold onto these because I got the Saints Row 3 Decker set and they look cool as hell.
Sony Gold - cheap, shoddy build quality (and the VSS is nothing to write home about), but also the easiest way to have wireless PS3 audio, so that's why I keep 'em.
SteelSeries Arctis 5 - a surprisingly modest looking headset (even with the RGB lighting) that feel pretty cozy. Sound feels a bit light. Not really a basshead or anything, but there was something about these I couldn't place. They also have proprietary connectors for the cords that could be an issue down the line. Had I known about the Cloud headset I would've passed on these for sure.
Philips Fidelio X1 + V-Moda BoomPro - probably the best pricy option. Feel great, sound great, and the BoomPro is a pretty fantastic mic. I wish more headphones had swappable cords to use with this thing.
I know OP already went with the HyperX, but for a sub-$100 option I think that's definitely the way to go. I personally got mine so I could have a dedicated headset that I wouldn't feel bad falling off my desk or something, and I'm really happy with them so far.
Beyond that, I'd say the Fidelio + BoomPro is your best bet.
