For home parties, you don’t really need big, expensive speakers to play good quality sounds, especially since there are now more affordable brands made especially for mp3 players.

If you’re an iPod user, for instance, you might want to check out the new iBand Duet speakers from Taiwanese-based brand Ozaki, which can blast powerful music without getting in the way of your party – the way huge speakers do.

You don’t have to be a party person to love iBand, however. Any music-lover would appreciate the convenience it affords. The best thing about iBand is how it lets you control your iPod without having to fiddle with the buttons.

How is that possible? Find out how to enjoy iBand even more after the jump.

If you’re a couch potato like I am, you will surely appreciate the tiny remote control that comes with the iBand. This nifty remote has controls identical to basic iPod controls, as Ozaki has been licensed by Apple to carry iPod accessories in Asia and other parts of the globe.

But iBand’s potentials do not end with the remote control. If you just want to listen to music sans the earphones or without turning on your computer, iBand does the trick; not only does it consume less power, it also charges your iPod once you plug it into the dock. Whatever iPod model you have, iBand can support it, thanks to dock adaptors that come with each unit.

Ozaki’s dual bass speaker system gives iBand Duet a powerful sound quality that I’m sure you’ll appreciate most when entertaining people at home. And if you’re tired of your music library, take a breather by tuning in to your favorite station with iBand Duet’s radio function.

Get your own iBand Duet for Php4,300. It is available along with other Ozaki products in tech stores nationwide.
