    Recording musicians use them for monitoring. Bluetooth has too much latency when you are trying to keep your groove in the pocket.

    I’m finding lots of great 10-15 yo used recording gear/tech that was originally $200+, going for cheap, like less than $50, because it doesn’t have Bluetooth, which you don’t want with recording gear anyway.
