I heard the sound was good. Check out Senhauser.

I've got a pair of Sony's Dolby/DTS wireless surround headphones... be aware that the surround effect really does sound like an effect. It's totally different sounding than normal headphones and I do like it, but still sounds fakey.

Don't know if it's still the case, but Yamaha used to include that feature on their receiver headphone jacks... Surround sound (DPL) with regular phones... Sounded pretty good (considering)...

I have the Sennheiser DSP PRO Surround decoder for headphones, and when I can't turn up the volume (most of the time with a three year old) It does very well... Haven't heard of anyone doing it in the digital domain, but I also haven't been keeping an eye out...

Check out the Sony MDR-IF5000. I've had one for 6 months and they are great. Worth the money. They are comfortable, have a optical input which sounds great.

Check out sennheisers and make sure to stay away from wireless headphones.....if you care for sound at all stick with a wired headphone...the sennheisers have really nice open aired headphones!!!!
