I made the mistake of believing some dumb guide online that recommended the Razer BlackShark v2 Pro for Linux. Literally the volume control is broken out of the box lol.

I just want a wireless headset. For listening to audio. And a mic. Don't care for fancy features. Apparently too much to ask for a linux user.

What are y'all using and how is it working for you?

Using a beyerdynamic dt770 into a schiit hel DAC and a separate modmic wired into the schiit hel as well. Best thing I've ever had. "Gamer" headsets suck.

I mean all headsets suck, really. I went through a few of them before just picking up a USB mic and plugging normal headphones into it.
