Bird Ezison 0 Passive Speaker

Bird Electron has just announced the Ezison 0 passive speaker that shares more than a passing resemblance to a fancy belt buckle instead of a speaker. It hooks up to a 3.5mm plug, drawing power from the source itself. Strangely enough, it doesn’t come with any volume controls but relies on a switch to change between High and Low output. These speakers will retail for $70 apiece in Japan, and is available in red and white colors in addition to gold, silver and blue with a metallic finish.
