Thread: 'Zeppelin ipod'

Take a look at your iPod – whether it’s an iPod Nano, 5G or one of the other MP3 player the Zeppelin supports. High quality digital copies of thousands of tracks, each one sitting there, waiting to be heard in all its glory. Zeppelin sets them all free. A full stereo system in one unit, it releases all of the detail and atmosphere that standard iPod docking stations miss. Compact enough to tuck under your arm, it can set you free, too.


1 August 2007 18:39 GMT - High end audio brand Bowers & Wilkins has launched the "Zeppelin" in the States.

It's a two foot wide iPod dock'n'speaker that'll set you back six hunnerd bucks.

Still, by all accounts you get 100 watts of power, a 5-inch woofer, glass-fiber cones and the same tweeters as you'd get in B&W's full size offerings.



How does it sound? We'll let you know, but with serious hardware inside — five drivers including a 5-inch woofer, glass-fiber cones, and those sweet tapered tubes for the tweeters (built within, clearly) that you find in the company's high-end designs — you can gamble on the "not too shabby" side. Three channels of amplification combine for 100 watts of power, pretty unheard of in this class. And hey, kids, it's also got the goods to send video and pi'tures to yer tee-vee. Solid stuff, to be sure, though at $599 we were expecting solid gold.
