Do you need a speaker system that is driven by Bluetooth or WiFi? Do you want a designer speaker for the living room? The Parrot Zikmu by Philippe Starck might be for you.

Todd Cochrane stopped by and put the mic up to the speaker to show off this interesting product. It stands about 2 1/2 feet high and weighs 17 lbs. It’s fully compatible with iPhone, iPod Touch – Nano and Classic. It also has a RCA line-in input for audio analog sources and plays all MP3 and LPCM audio formats. The frequency ranges from 50 Hz – 20 kHz and takes 70W per speaker.

But for this product, you might want to get out your mortgage. $1599 is the suggested retail price. Of course, they are developed by Phillippe Starck – a designer in the New Design style. He recently redesigned the Microsoft optical mouse and was commissioned to design the Spaceport for Virgin Galactic.
