<p>Computer peripheral company Logitech today announced that it will acquire popular audio company Jaybird. For those unfamiliar, Jaybird offers a variety of headphone products over recent years (http://www.amazon.com/Jaybird-Sport-Wireless-Bluetooth-Headphones/dp/B013HSW4SM?ie=UTF8&amp;ref_=sr_1_1&amp;sr=8-1&amp;keywords=jaybird&amp;tag=9to5g-20&amp;qid=1460506686), most of which have been wireless. Logitech says the deal is worth $50 million in cash, with an additional earn-out of up to $45 million based on achievement of growth targets over the next two years.</p>
