10) The little speaker that could
The Banshee 3d2001 is one of the better audio systems for a mp3 device I have seen or come across.

While most other brands have only 2 speakers, the Banshee has 5.

The sound is clear and rich with a distinct tone quality not found in the other brands. First thing I noticed or felt, was this was not some cheap
audio system made to satisfy a market for an external audio system for your iPod or other device.

As the instructions note, it is not advisable to put these speakers in a close proximity to other electronic appliance's as this will adversely affect it performances i.e. the snapping and crackling noted by other reviewers. Read the instructions people.

I have been told by those in " the know " that the reason the Banshee 3d20001 does not have a battery is this little guy pumps out to many amps for the 5 speakers that to include a battery it would have to be much larger than the product itself thus not being practical; it is not a design flaw, these speakers were never designed to run on an internal power source.

If you want to get it for a family member or friend say in a dorm or similar living situation with a power supply, this is the system to get. It would make a great gift that is sure to please.

9) Decent but no where near worth its price
The only reason why I bought this was because i got it off a daily deal site(I won't say which one) for $20 with $2 shipping. I was like hey $150...I'm getting them for $22. How could I pass up that kind of deal? The only downside I was expecting was that the iPod cradle wasn't a dock. But I was willing to look past that since my Logitech mm28 just connects to the earphone jack(I'll be comparing some of this to my mm28). Anyway, after anxiously waiting for my package for a week, I rip the HUGE box open and I see this shiny little piece of equipment. I plug her in and I hate that I can't tell if it's on or off without sound coming out. But I get her on and get it to a medium volume. Something sounds wrong. I hear like a warbling sound for most songs that I play. I listen to many different types of music where bass and treble and dynamics vary. I try different audio sources. I try sitting and standing at different positions and different distances. No help. Listening at anything near loud volumes...don't get your hopes up. My mm28's play at much louder volumes with much better treble and bass production. Mind you that the mm28's retail around $40 and easily found around $20ish. These banshee speakers also don't have battery operation. Instead, you get a brick of a power supply. The silly look wouldn't bother me if it served as a design to give me the awesome sound that it supposedly should. I don't even think it was worth my $22. Sorry Banshee.

Pros:
»Included cradles
»Style (if it's your thing)

Cons:
»Weird warbling effect
»Volume handle
»Bass reproduction
»Horrible value
»Bulky

8) Crackle, pop and wavy sound!
I completely agree with some of the prior negative reviews. This system does snap, crackle and pop (and it has nothing to do with other electronics) unless you are talking about anything else plugged in. With significant treble in the music you will hear the system pop, so most rock is immediately out. Gaming wise, I haven't had any problem with the midi reproduction.
Overall, however, there is a wavy output which I find rather annoying. I am not an audiophile by any stretch; but I do notice a surge in music as I listen to my iPods playback. This may have to do with the AC current from the bulky adapter. Why not supply a direct current?? It pretty much steps down your 110VAC to 12 VAC. That is why some say it is not too portable. Sitting on the desktop, it looks pretty good, I think. Hope this helps

7) Nice, but. . .
it should be called "snap, crackle, pop". I'm told the constant crackling sounds with certain "tones" is interference from other devices. So this would be great if you lived in a home without anything electronic running near it. And I could totally be wrong, but I've lived in two homes with this thing and both places it makes the terrible crackling sound. Not only that, but you can't adjust anything. . it has to be plugged in and there's no recharge capability for your Mp3 player. Save your money and look elsewhere, in my humble opinion.

6) Awesome sound system
For a small black box, it blows my mind and ears away. I plugged it into my iPod at 60% volume and the house was filled with amazing crystal clear sound. I recommend everyone to buy this product. I love it so much that I have bought two banshees and placed them in my basement and in my inlaw suite. When I played the banshee in my in law suite, it not only filled the 800 sqft suite but continued into the rest of the house making it seem that I have a my iPod hooked up to a JBL or Bose 5.1 sound system. Also, my cousin has a bose sound dock, and my sister has an iHome the banshee system beats both systems without even breaking a sweat.
I love the Banshee and recommend everyone to buy one.
