As I say I’ve had no issues with AirPods and my current B&W are passable.
Sure for audio quality isn’t as good Bluetooth as wired but as some who listens to a lot of classical I don’t really have the ears that can distinguish between different bitrates.
I’m no audiophile either, I don’t care what profile it’s in in normal mode, but everything is instantly a disaster in headset mode.
I know AirPods have some non standard support to escape the Bluetooth mess on apple hardware.
I want a headset that works on windows, my phone, and mac, which means I’m stuck with standard support, which basically means I’m stuffed.
With airpods I could see that on an iPhone, but if I remember correctly even on Macs the issue is present.
