You should check if your microphones are proximity microphones, or ambiant microphones. If they are just made to be on a desktop, near the speaker for a skype call, this is not good.
You can actually try with a good webcam, as the integrated microphone is well adapted for what you did. It will be available in OBS as a USB microphone too.
When you are creating a place to exchange and discuss, you are creating a knowledge base about two things: your community members, and the knowledge they share.
For this, forum are bad, because 1/ you can't find the solution, lost in the middle of a thead and 2/ this is not a chat.
That's why today, I would recommand a good Q&A (BTW, Discourse can do it too) to easily find problems, solutions, and most active members. And, then, add an online chat (Mattermost, Rocket, ...) to replace the "forum" discussion. I mean, when this is not usefull to store the answer in time.
