Not strictly gaming....WFH Headset

Hi all,

The wife and I both work from home and in the same room. Luckily, only for 2 days together, but it's becoming increasingly hard to be on Teams calls together due to background noise (our voices!) She's a project manager, and I manage a big team, so we are in a number of calls - The usual Jabra headsets aren't cutting it, and my poor Bluetooth one earpiece is undoubtedly a no-no now. Can anyone recommend decent headsets with microphones that are less responsive to anything other than a noise a couple of centimetres away?

The problem isn't even noise through the mic, but it's off-putting me hearing her speak whilst I am... I don't hate my wife, just that it is all very off-putting; I preferred when she works from the lounge :D

I hoped to avoid a complete gaming headset style, but I assume I must go down that route to get real noise cancelling.

It's an old pic now, with many updates since, but you can see how close we are to one another.


Any recommendations would be great!

Thanks

Quite possibly, I'm currently using a Steelseries Arctis but the microphone has started to fail on me so was just wondering what alternatives there was out there.

I forgot I created this thread. No I never sorted this! I use a Steelseries 7p for gaming and find the noise cancellation pretty poor so wouldn't consider this for working purposes.
