Bayan 3 iPod speaker: premium sound at a modest price

Bayan Audio has announced its latest line of iPod Touch/iPhone speaker docks, which it says deliver rich sound at a modest price. The Bayan 3 is a compact speaker dock made from solid wood and high-quality components, designed for family and bedroom listening. Don’t be fooled by its size, says Bayan Audio – this thing packs a punch.

Bayan Audio can boast an army of iPod speaker docks. The Bayan 7 is its biggest. Sitting somewhere in the middle, the Bayan 3 crams in many of the same sound-enhancing features and design into a speaker dock you could fit on your bedside table.

The Bayan 3 comes crafted from “stunning quality” components and “organic materials” including 9mm solid wood that Bayan Audio claims reduces energy dissipation and reflects all of that sweet sound towards the front of the speaker. The result is natural distortion-free sound using pseudo-stereo tech for “rich, wide sound: for under £100.

In numbers, we’re talking 45 watts of RMS power, a 5.25-inch bass speaker and a 2-inch mid/high frequency speaker. A port on its right side will charge your iPhone, iPod while playing its musical contents.

The Bayan 3 is available now from the company website and online for £99.99 (inc. VAT). It could be one worth checking out. We’ll be doing exactly that for ourselves, so stay tuned for a full review once we get our ears on it.

A modest price? Really? I bought a really good 2.1 speaker setup with in built amp for £24. Okay you can't sit your silly ipod in it but I no longer use my generation 1 ipod as I bought an android phone and the money I saved allowed me to put it towards a netbook which I bought for £120 and runs my music, films, tv. I take it you mean modest as is huge markup to Dixons Store Group

@LJ sorry, I disagree. I think is a very modest price. Am becoming a fan of Bayan products their Bayan7 is just fantastic for giving me big bass in the living room. Am going to seriously look at this option for some big bass action in bedroom!
