7.1 Headset compatibility (piefed.social)

Hello and happy holidays!

I've recently made the switch to Linux and I'm looking for a headset with 7.1 surround sound that'll also work with my PS5. I'm ok to switch to any distro as some won't work as well as others with the sound drivers. I'm currently using PopOS.

I did some research and even asked at a computer store but I found it difficult to get a reliable answer on a good set. I'd also like wireless and I'm ok with a usb over Bluetooth connection.

Can anyone point me in the direction of a great headset that'll work with what I'm looking for? Hunting for Linux things is certainly harder than that crappy os I switched from, but I know it's worth it.

Thank you!

Will this headset work with the most common Distros, as well as PS5? I have trouble with high levels of customization to get things to work.

I don't have a PS5 to verify, but it should. Never had any issue with the distros I used it on, it was just plug and play.
