Headset Versus Speakers

I recently made a build for a PC thread, and I got my build. Now as I'm trying to list the other things, (Monitors, Keyboard, Mice, ETC.) I was wondering if I should get a speaker system or a Surround-Sound headset.

For the headset I'm thinking Astro A40's http://www.astrogaming.com/a40/wired/a40-audio-system-astro-edition
For the speakers, I honestly have no clue.

I'd personally go for a speaker system.
If it's going to be mostly for gaming, then just get the headset.

I just use cheapy Logitech speakers lol; really don't need high-definition speakers since I normally use a HD280 + Blue Snowball for my audio needs.

Then buy yourself an A40. What's the question now?

This is really a personal preference issue... but then again most people in this world run their lives based off what others think
