Just a wee FYI, to kick off:
TrustedReviews "B&W has managed to produce an iPod speaker dock that raises the bar so high, I doubt that the competition can see it, let alone reach it"
and another...
This Bowers & Wilkins Zeppelin won the 2008 CES Innovations Award:
"In the three months since its launch the sound system has proved to be an unqualified hit, exceeding sales targets and winning one of the most coveted awards in the industry, the Consumer Electronics Association¹s Best of Innovations 2008 Design and Engineering Award."
In light of all that, do we really need to say anymore? Oh all right then...
So yes, the Zeppelin is a little pricey but by all accounts it is worth every penny. Produced by those legends of sound - the all-British Bowers & Wilkins - the Zeppelin rose to the challenge in a recent head-to-head against other speaker ipod docks on the Gadget Show. Did it impress? You bet it did!
When they say 'stunningly rich, room-filling sound,' apparently they mean it at B&W... and one would expect nothing less from the sound gurus. The Zeppelin comes backed with B&W's 40 years experience in the audio industry and they've supplied speakers to the best - Abbey Road and Skywalker Sound, par example.
So why is the Zeppelin so good? ... There's the technological side of things - like B&W's most advanced speakers - and yes, it will go very loud indeed and without distortion.
Then there's the shape. It is not just for fun, it seems. In fact, the shape is also a key ingredient in spreading the sound evenly around the room you are sitting in.
You deserve one, your iPod deserves one...
So what are you waiting for ? Bid now!
