 Not a good product May 9, 2008

My son won the iSound Plasma in a contest. The sound is fine, but the plasma globe has problems. It was a promising feature, but the bulb now remain dark. If you tap it, it breifly works. I tried to contact the company. The website tries to down load a dangerous files. Telephone support is useless. Great concept, but don't buy it.

Cheaply made is the best phrase to describe this item. Received one as a gift and like other people who reviewed it, the speakers worked but the globe did not. The globe would light up when touched but that was about it. The speakers themselves were poor quality. I had it hooked up to my PC and the cheap $12 speakers on my desk provided better sound quality by far. I attempted to contact the support department at DreamGear (the 1-800 number is a recording telling you to send an e-mail). It took a day to get a response which consisted of "Make sure the unit is plugged in and the globe inserted into the base". A follow up e-mail to my response took 6 days and requested I send the globe to their office for replacement however no tracking number or RMA was provided....no thanks.
broke within 45 minutes December 9, 2007
Bought this for my brother for his birthday. Plugged it in... worked okay... but then within 45 minutes the bulb stopped functioning. Was nice while it lasted, though. Same as the other reviewer, if we jiggle it around the bulb works for just a moment then goes black again.
Poorly made February 5, 2007
I got this for Christmas, and it's a mixed review for me. I'm actually pleased with the sound, as I wanted this for my office at work. Just wanted something I could plug my nano in and so replace the boombox I had here. So for what is required of it, I have no problems with the sound, as I never really crank it up. However, the 'visual' component was a major disappointment. Within a week the 'bulb' at the top no longer functioned. I gather there is a short of some type, as if I push down on the glass ball on top I'll get a visual light effect for 2 seconds. Otherwise, nothing. Since part of the appeal of this was to have the light effects WITH the speakers, I'd have to advise caution in buying this. You can probably get speakers just as good cheaper elsewhere, and my experience says you are rolling the dice if you are buying this for the light effects as well.

My teenage son received this for Christmas as a speaker source for his ipod. He is happy with it, it's fun and pretty cool. I wonder if the price is a little high but all ipod speaker systems seem too high priced for me anyway. It is a fun novelty and the speakers seem pretty good, not for the serious sound seeker I don't believe, but I am no expert in speakers.
