duda sobre audifonos
Para los que cachan más. Qué tal el audio? Por que yo tengo unos sony 1000xm5, y al conectarlo en modo blutu con micrófono la calidad de audio baja exponencialmente. Por lo que si quiero que suene bien debo usarlo sin micrófono. En estos gamers pasa lo mismo?

Bluetooth/Sound drivers not working
Hey everyone,
I’m struggling with my Sony WH-1000XM5 on a 2017 27" iMac running Windows 10 via Boot Camp on an external SSD.
The issue:
- Windows shows the headphones as connected (headset), but no audio works.
- They don’t appear in playback devices.
- Device Manager lists them, but **not under sound
