You can consider the [SteelSeries Arctis Pro](https://realpeoplewin.com/the-best-pc-gaming-headset-steelseries/). Great mic and noise cancellation.
Id definetly look at what you'd want to spend. If its around $200 then get the Arctis Pros with the DAC. Probably the best youll find at that price point and the mic that comes integrated isnt crazy but it is serviceable.
HD560s are 150 euros and regularly go on sale so they are quite close to 100. You have plenty of modmic alternatives which don't break the bank. For slightly more you get a decent sounding headphone which is also very sturdy, something the steelseries headphones aren't. I owned Arctis Pro + the Dac and it sounded bad and was built like crap. I can already see they still have the same plastic construction. Mine broke after a year, got a pair of new ones under warranty which broke again after 6 months, i got new ones under warranty which then broke after 8 months. No thanks. Its great that you're enjoying them, but that doesn't make them good.
You wont look back, I used to use a set of SteelSeries Arctis Pro headphones with their GameDac and it was a game changer! Being able to adjust the volume of your in game party chat against the game audio on the fly saved me more times than I can count. It was just a volume knob which basically allowed a 50/50 chat/game mix or instant adjustment to any variation our of 100 you like. But the best part about that GameDac was the EQ tuner which again could be done super quickly. Took a while to work out exactly what frequency you want but once you nail it down you can hear footsteps from WAYYYYYY further away than you ever have any business hearing. Sometimes it was so amplified you'd be sneaking around waiting to catch this guy who you could swear was in your building when he was Sometimes a few houses over (PUBG)
Steelseries Arctis Pro (Wired) with DAC.
My work bought me these years ago and they have been awesome. I’ve had zero issues. My kids mess with them. They sound great and I use them almost daily.
I have a Steelseries Arctis Pro 2 I think? But I don't keep dropping it nor have a cat.
I have the Steelseries Arctic Pro. The base station lets me have multiple inputs at the same time. Computers, PS4, Panasonic 420, etc... When I first got them I had my two computers and PS4 audio coming into the headset all at the same time. No switching! The inputs are small headphone jack, bluetooth, optical.
