Logitech acquires Ultimate Ears!

Guess who bought Ultimate Ears! Not sure many of you know this company, but it is a top-dollar top quality company for making in-ear headphones. I personally use their triple-fi pro headphones.
Not sure if this is a good thing or a bad thing; but definitely interesting.

i use skull candy for in ear, they are amazing. and i have a low end crap model. i want the full metal jacket but those are expensive.

 

I just hope they don't ruin UE.

 

Nah, Logitech is a great company with great products.

 

True. But UE is UE. I always worry when a smaller company I like is taken over by a larger one, even if I like the larger one (I have logitech speakers and mouse).

 

interesting, I hope Logitech does a good job (bad move discontinuing the x-230 though).

 

Logitech always does a good job.

 

They discountinued them for the crappier x-240s . I agree though I have the x-230s and they are simply amazing.

 

Anyone like the look of the new super.fi5s? (Super.fi3 owner here)

 

I second this. I was surprised when I saw they got bought out today.

I use the metro.fi 2s and they are awesome - great clarity, bass, and sound isolation. I hope Logitech allows UE to continue doing what they're doing.

 

I'm looking forward to this. As I am in need of better headphones.

 

I need a set of good earbuds sometime down the road, I love my headphones but they are not going to get packed into my bag and crushed/ruined. I was looking at this brand so wonder what that means in terms of prices.

 

I almost bought those. And would have, if my brother had no bought me a (much) better and expensive pair. And I did recomend them to my friend, who also seriously likes them.

 

I have logitech speakers...
