The Parrot Zik had several problems in my evaluation that made it a marginal listen at best and not a good deal for $400. The huge peak at 6 khz or so made voices very grating at times. The default exaggeration of echoes made many tracks unlistenable. I got the sense with some percussion that the Zik is doing a kind of digital processing that isn't smooth, that \"skips\" a few things. And Running test tones showed a very large output around 15 to 17 khz, which is peculiar.
