‘Zikmu’ stands at the cutting edge of new wireless technologies and streams audio tracks without any wires in sight due to its dedicated iPod® / iPhone™ docking station and Wi-Fi and Bluetooth® technologies. The two speakers communicate with each other using Bluetooth technology in order to position both speakers anywhere in the room.Zikmu’ has been designed for compatibility with the entire range of latest generation Apple players. Using the docking station built into one of the columns, users can enjoy their favorite music while recharging their iPod® or iPhone™ music player. In addition, the speakers and connected device can be controlled from anywhere in the room using the Parrot by Starck smart remote control. Audio tracks can also be streamed from a user’s PC or Mac® to the speakers via Wi-Fi or through Bluetooth® stereo (A2DP) wireless technology.
The Parrot by Starck speakers revolutionizes traditional acoustic design by using innovative audio technology to bring consumers a 360° immersive sound experience due to NXT™ technology. An extra-flat membrane creates small-scale vibrations across its entire surface to faithfully reproduce the medium and treble frequencies, optimally radiating sound from both sides of the speaker. Regardless of the size of the room and the position of the columns, the sound will adapt to the acoustics.
“We were not aiming to create just another speaker,” says Philippe Starck. “Our design focused more on making the air vibrate. There is actually a three-dimensional feel to this vibration, meaning that the air is palpable, almost humanlike in presence, like a fragrance.” The size of the speakers (2.5 feet tall) has been specially designed to maximize listening quality when sitting on the sofa or at the desk for an optimal sound experience every day.
