Logitech gobbling up Ultimate Ears

Looks like Logitech wants some of the consumer and professional headphone pie. The ware maker is already one of the top dogs in the accessory biz, but with the now-upcoming acquiation of Ultimate Ears for $34 million cash, Logitech is going to be able to have their pie and eat it too. This expansion seems like a great fit for Logitech’s lackluster headphone lineup. Immediate recognition: Ultimate Ear’s current products are already used by about 75% of touring rock stars. Immediate product line: Ultimate Ear’s gear start at $40 and can climb all the way to $1,200. No word on when we will see the new branded products, but we can’t wait.
