Tried Arctis 7’s and I’m thinking they don’t do what I need as I’d like some headphones 5.1/7.1 that I can use for gaming and/or general TV

..with a budget of <£200 could someone recommend me some that can plug into the TV (optical or hdmi) and once headset is switched on the sound goes through them for either gaming or TV
 
Do they have to have a mic or just 5.1 / 7.1 ?

I don’t need a mic - never used for gaming. But want decent surround sound effect since can’t have it loud when family in bed :( and equally when watch movies or tv
 
Surely there’s a gap in market... it’s either gaming or music.
Hard work finding something that’s for sure...
 
Gaming is about speed, spatial cues, soundstage and detail. Headphones for music with these qualities will be fine for gaming. The issue is when you want a mic for online chat, which precludes traditional headphones for music
 
Don’t really use the mic but ended up with some Astra A50’s

sounds pretty good and are very comfortable
