The Bowers & Wilkins Zeppelin Air is a sleek
High-end iPod/iPhone stereo speaker with built-in Apple AirPlay audio-streaming capabilities. Ample speaker drivers--two 1-inch tweeters
Two 3-inch midrange drivers
And one 5-inch woofer--provide solid sound
Amazing sound
Great build quality
Stylish design
Killer sound
Period. Wireless AirPlay streaming adds convenience while maintaining HD audio quality. So many upgrades over the original
Yet the price is the same. Consumes only 0.8 watts in standby mode. Oh
And it charges your iPhone
Too
Improved sound quality. AirPlay for wireless playback. AUX input and composite video pass-through. Can connect via USB for iTunes syncing.
The editors didn't like
A bit to heavy on the bass for my taste out of the box but this can be adjusted in a few easy steps
A bit too bold looks-wise for Elana's taste
Limited functionality on the cute little remote
Awkward controls
Streaming can be unreliable
Not truly portable
Very Expensive
Different colored lights on the front of the unit mean something. I can never remember what
Plus it's hard to see what color is showing far away
Frustrating AirPlay setup. But once done
It's simple to use
Beware the firmware updates.
Expensive
Remote control is awkwardly shaped
Missing key features
The Zeppelin Air is very expensive
And it offers little stereo separation unless you're sitting or standing near the speaker. AirPlay setup may be tough for first-timers
And there are some compromises when controlling via iPad
IPhone
Or iPod Touch
Finicky network connectivity
Lacks true iTunes Windows instructions
Minor network interference
Faux plastic chrome
If you're not an Apple person
You're limited to USB use. Doesn't work with iPods older than the Classic. AirPlay requires setup and maintenance smarts. Status indicator LED on the front will have you reaching for the manual to decode. Looks like a big do
Remote is so-so. Includes printed catalogue of other B&W gear
But no hard-copy owner’s manual. Price puts it out of reach of lots of music fans. Cloth speaker covers are a dust magnet.
Udfordrende opsætning. Dyrt. Ikke optimal sammen med et hi-fi-anlæg.
God løsning, hvis du har et anlæg i forvejen. ...
