I'm tired of cables. Which type of headphone integrates better with VMix, USB or Blue Tooth. What are the potential problems with either type. Will be using this device as a headphone, not a headset.

Any advice?

I have used off the shelf Bluetooth headset with no issues, but I would recommend having a wired set as a backup in case of disconnects. My Motherboard came with a Bluetooth 4.0/Wifi card. Was good for up to 30ft..

BT has it's range limitations and the risk of disconnects is relatively high if you roam. There are RF IEMs (InEarMonitoring) devices availabe at arround 100-200$.
USB is wired. So no option. Take a look at B&H or Thomann and search for IEM. You get your results.

We've found that in some laptops Bluetooth interferes with WiFi on the laptop (i.e. reduces WiFi speed).
