10 days is hardly necro. The topic, prices and products mentioned are still relevant. I'd rather have a topic keep being discussed than people randomly creating threads just to recommend gaming headsets.
Can anyone recommend a good Pc gaming headset under R1500?

Agreed.
Better to have one thread being necroed about the same topic than having multiple threads pertaining to the same thing.

CM Storm Sirus price is well within your budget R1,500. It is true 5.1 surround sound and 7.1 simulation.

My god this thread is still going?

Rather still going, than duplicates of similar threads.
I, for a great example, am also looking for headphones, but preferably something below the R500 mark, without a mic.
If anyone has any suggestions, please - let me know.

For gaming, music, movies?

All, actually. Something with decent bass, mids and clarity delivery. Will be spending a lot more time gaming, however.

Going to struggle to find something that performs well at those ranges for <R500. Let me see what I can do though.

Thanks. Don't need anything spectacular. Just a good pair that'll hold for some time. Durable and reliable.

Then I'd take a look at some Shures, Rolands, AKGs and Sennheisers.
Sennheiser
HD 201 - R470
HD 202 - R399
AKG
K77 - R544.74
K44 - R423.68
K404 - R530 (I hate the design of these. They don't hold very well on your head)
Shure
SRH240 - R629.47
Roland
RH-200 - R365.95 (Fantastic - especially at that price)
RH-5 - R435.79

This is sadly me too
I'm using my 5.1 system as a 2.1 right now with my PS3, until I get my PC set up next week. I miss surround sound

Excellent suggestions dude. Seriously. Good to see that there are no "gaming" headphones on that list.
(I love me some AKG's)

Yeah man gaming headphones are usually too bass heavy. Makes your gaming sound very muddy at times. Thought I'd give Hagan a different set of options this time round.

And I thank you.
Heavily considering the Sennheiser HD 202. Only downside -- no in-line volume control, but I'm sure my keyboard has volume-adjustment keys.

Yeah none of those headphones will have volume control.
But - they are going to serve you far better than most other headphones in its price range.
