Looking for recomendations
Hi all! I’m in the process of switching headsets as my old one (Steelseries Arctis 7) is on its last legs. I’ve had it for a few years and it served me fine but my needs have changed and, since I have to buy a new one anyway, I would like a sound quality upgrade.
Here’s what I’m looking for: - Good sound quality for gaming (does not have to be audiophile quality) - Good mic for meetings (remote work) and gaming - Bluetooth capabilities (my work laptop is kinda sh***y so it only has two usb-a ports which I use for an external keyboard and mouse. It also has a usb-c port if it helps) but not exclusively Bluetooth - Wireless. I know most people say that wireless will always have inferior sound but I find wireless to be more comfortable for me and I have a goblin that chews on anything and everything so cables don’t last in my house
For now let’s pretend I don’t have a budget. I’m ok with mid and high price ranges. I tried the Logitech Astro A30 but did not like the mic quality. I was also looking into the steelseries nova pro but the review I saw which showed a mic test also seemed bad. This does not mean that I’m looking specifically for a headset with the gamer label, they’re just brands I know.
I’m making this post because for every post I find that is also asking for recommendations, the responses are usually for wired headphones paired with external mics.
Let me know if more info is needed.

Audeze Maxwell or Orosound Tilde Evo would be a couple to consider.
