Ideally i would love a decent wireless system but then i cant justify the expense if i can get wired for a fair bit cheaper. :-k

The Sony ones do seem the ideal middle ground being both wireless and more affordable.

I'd just buy a double set of rechargeables for them and have 1 set charging and 1 set in the headset.

Or buy the Astros cos they're awesome
