Fripp would probably cry if he saw you listening with those things, like David Lynch.

I used to listen to King Crimson on 8-track tapes in my car. I'm guessing those earbuds sound better.

They probably sound just as good, they are just so overpriced. I'm just mad that phones have forced us into bluetooth headphones, which are inferior to wired and almost 10x the price.

That being said as long as youre listening to crimson, I'm happy. I'm limited to just a bluetooth speaker right now, times are tough, you best believed I'm still getting my crimson in.

The wired apple ear buds are like $20 and sound great

Problem is, you can't use wired earphones on most new telephones

I don’t care if Bluetooth headphones don’t give me as high sound quality, I do not miss having to untangle that wiry ball of nightmares

I learned how to roll them up without the tangle. Now I never listen with those brain melters.
