Paradigm speakers, high-end audiophile sound quality at bargain
prices.

A three speaker system would just be L/C/R with no surround sound?

A true 5.1 system would have 5 speakers: left, center, right, and L/R
surround, and a subwoofer.

A 7.1 surround system adds two additional speakers firing from the
sides, awesome.

If you are eliminating the surrond sound for some reason, then I would
suggest you at least add a sub woofer.

I've never heard a wireless headphone that sounded any good. My
favorite wired headphones are AKG though, very accurate and
comfortable.
