[NFBCS] quality jbl headphones

[Aaron Cannon]

One unfortunate thing you're likely to encounter when running Jaws through
Bluetooth is the delay. (Actually, this is not just a problem with Jaws,
but any high-latency bluetooth connection). The only bluetooth headset that
I've found that doesn't exhibit this behavior is the Airpods connection to
my IOS device. If you find something that works on Windows, I'd love to
hear about it.

Good luck regardless.
