Cerwin-Vega CVHD 5.1

RadioShack 2.4GHz Wireless Stereo Headphones
In this world of iPod-centric audio accessories, it's refreshing to note that RadioShack's 2.4GHz Wireless Stereo Headphones work with any portable audio device. We certainly can't complain about the $59.95 list price, but the fact that they're too uncomfortable to wear for extended periods of time rather takes away from...
