  Hey, i have creative sb tactic 3d rage, actually i dont buy creative headset but its gift from my gf. Anyway, this device is very uncomfortable and basses are very very flat and muddy. But using 50 mm neo drivers and produces loud sound.

for a headSET get PC360 or mmx300
 
these headsets don't come with their own soundcard so you should consider buying a sound card for Dolby headphone and PRO LOGIC IIx or cmss3d.
 
You can as well get the razer surround app which gives you surround sound, I got it for free at Razer's website.

the headsets you listed are not worth the money in my opinion, they are gimmicky and sound like crap. I used to have a Corsair vengeance 1500 but after buying the A700x I gave it away....night and day difference..

the sony XB series are well known for their bass. the sound stage and positional cues are terrible which means the headphone only gives you fun and is not good for positional fps/competitive gaming...
 
my advice to you is to take a look at Mad Lust Envy's gaming headphone guide which can be found here :

he compares different headphones from different manufacturers and rates them in three different departments : Fun Competitive and comfort
