SOLUTION EDIT:

So my solution has been to order a refurbished Turtle Beach Stealth 600 Gen2 with the dongle. It was $100 cheaper than the gen3 and I'm not that flush with cash that $100AUD doesn't make a difference to me.

I can use the LDAC codec with the XM4s but it switches the mic off. I can't get stereo and mic working at the same time likely due to the limitations of the bluetooth protocol.

I was also considering a blue yeti mic on a boom but it was looking to be the same price as the Turtle Beach refurbs.

Thanks everyone for all your input. Much appreciated.

Hi everyone.

So I'm trying to use my Sony wireless cans over bluetooth for Arc Raiders and the mic isn't very good at all. It's better in discord but my friends tell me it's still not great.

I'm aware of bluetooth duplex quality issues. It used to work fine on Windows 10 but is struggling on Bazzite. I'd love to just tinker with some settings or drivers and have it work so I don't have to buy anything else.

I'm prepared to buy a wireless headset with 2.4ghz dongle but don't know what's good.

I'm also prepared to buy a microphone and just use the headset as headphones only.

I've done about five years help desk support so would strongly prefer not to be physically tethered to my computer.

Thanks for any advice.
