Wicked Audio is releasing a new line of headphones at CES 2012. Dubbed Solus (Latin for "Be Yourself"), the headphones are said to be Wicked Audio's best sounding headphones to date.

Touted as the "next big thing" from Wicked Audio, the headphones will be available in a black/red design and feature a thick braided cord with built-in volume control. They also include a DJ switch, which lets you switch from DJ to stereo sound in an instant – allowing you to listen to music in one ear or both.

The first Wicked Audio product of 2012 to sport the company's brand new packaging, Solus headphones will be available January 2012 for $100 at www.wickedaudio.com.

"At Empire Brands, we're constantly striving to create a variety of headphones that appeal to all of our customers, from fashionistas to musicians," said Paul Marshall, VP of Sales, Empire Brands. "We are thrilled to unleash our newest Solus headphones at CES 2012 which sport the brand new packaging now being used for all Wicked products, delivering an immaculate look. These are the best sounding Wicked headphones to date, which breaks us into another mass appeal market while still delivering the unique design qualities our customers know and love."
