Since this Hackintosh community experienced such a growth and got that popular, the suppliers probably saw a way to cut themselves some money from cards that previously next to nobody was interested in.
I'm happy that I found this one for "only" 50 bucks since I also saw some way overpriced stuff like 100+ Euros. It's just sad hat there is no reasonable priced and available supply of cards like this, shouldn't be that difficult...

also best to check your BIOS doesn't have a whitelist of what wifi cards can be installed on your machine

FYI:
I think I've solved the problem: There were some missing patches. Audio doesn't stop now (fully continuous) and the mouse works fine. Maybe I'll report back with some problems in the future, but I don't think so.
Also, using the following kexts:
* BrcmBluetoothInjector.kext
* BrcmFirmwareData.kext
* BrcmPatchRAM3.kext
* AirportBrcmFixup.kext
Installed in Clover/kexts/Other since /L/E didn't work out at all for me (maybe this has something to do with Catalina).
I've attached two images (since all informations didn't fit in the box, thus p1 & p2) which are showing the patches I've applied.
Used gfxutil to get my PCI-Device "Path". https://github.com/acidanthera/gfxutil/releases
Using the command: "gfxutil -f pci14e4,43b1"
You should exec this yourself, since the path can vary.
Hope this helps someone.
//Edit: "model" is cut off in image, this is the value: "Broadcom BCM94352Z - 802.11a/b/g/n/ac Wireless Network Adapter"

UPDATE:
Got lags again... BUT! I have done something else that fixed it (for now, we all know how long that can last...).
My steps (if you wan't to trace along at home
)
* Used the hackintool to move *all* kexts from Clover to /L/E
* Changed the above kexts with some (maybe custom compiled?) kexts, specific for DW1560, I found after a long google searching session (attached here)
Now, I can download huge files (100% WiFi usage) and use my mouse + AirPods (decent BT usage). Everything still works flawlessly! But I still think the patch from my previous post wasn't for the fishes since it made the situation a bit better, already before changing to those new kexts.
