Parrot Zikmu Solo: the excellence of wireless soundParrot
ZikmuSolo integrates the most advanced technologies in terms of
sound in an
architecture that has been entirely rethought by the engineers
of the French brand.
A stereo image, unique on a speaker tower
Parrot Zikmu Solo offers an optimal stereo output, true prowess
on a single unit
speaker, thanks to three loudspeakers located on the upper part
of the Zikmu Solo:
Two HARP (High Aspect Ratio Panel) drivers diffuse the
sound on the right and/or left side of Zikmu Solo;
One central BMR (Balanced Modal Radiator) driver diffuses
the sound to the front and the back of the speaker.
Parrot engineers added a proprietary algorithmic processor
to
this system: the Sound Flex, which respects the musical for
a
pure and perfectly balanced musical image.
The capability to also adjust the audio settings of Parrot
Zikmu Solo according to the size of the room (room
sizecompensation) and the position of the speaker in the room (room
position
compensation) contributes to this balanced sound image.
This unique combination enables Parrot Zikmu Solo to virtually
reproduce the stereo
sound image of a classic two-speaker configuration...
Deep bass
The bottom part ofParrot Zikmu Solo dissimulates a powerful
Neodymium woofer
that projects the music toward the floor before it bounces in
the room, at 360.
Very complex Parrot-patented algorithms complete and perfect
this acoustic
performance:
Bass Extender1: enables to reach bass sound up to 30Hz,
without
modifying the volume.
Non Linearity Compensation: these algorithms create dynamic
low
frequencies and correct, when needed, the quality of the sound
by
minimizing harmonic distortion even on high volume.
Parrot Zikmu Solo: full connectivityIn addition to Bluetooth,
Wi-Fi and NFC2 wireless technologies, Parrot Zikmu Solo
offers a wide range of connectivity options.
A line-in input that is both analog and optical digital allows
one
to connect the speaker to any source (TV, stereo, amplifier,
etc.) and
an integrated Ethernet port enables the extension of the
homenetwork to areas not covered by Wi-Fi.
Thanks to all available connectivity options, everyone can send
or
share preferred music from Parrot Zikmu
Solo.
Connect the speaker to a Wi-Fi router to
access and share files stored on
PC/Mac/Tablet or network drives via UPnP
and DLNA protocols.
1This can be deactivate via the Parrot Audio Suite application
or the web interface.
2Only works with NFC compatible Smartphones that are equipped
with this feature.

or toadjust the Zikmu Solos audio settings according to the sizeof
the room (Room Size Compensation) and the position of the
speaker in the room (Room Positioning), that is to say standard
position, in a corneror against a wall.
Zikmu Solo takes up the unique, sober and elegant drawing of the
Zikmu speakers,which were born from Philippe Starcks pencil.With
