The OYO Ballo Speaker looks rather like the head of a microphone but it's used to amplify the music on your iPod for all to hear it. Connected to a 1-meter cord with a 3.5mm jack, the gadget is compatible with the majority of modern personal audio devices and is a great deal more convenient than most portable sound systems on the market.
The tiny sphere has two parts that are secured together by a colored band. This component also protects the audio accessory when it's resting on a surface and improves the quality of the bass with some absorption. Bernhard Burkard's golf ball sized OYO Ballo Speaker is rechargeable, small enough to transport and user-friendly. It emits sound in every direction the moment that it's plugged in.
