Bowers & Wilkins Zeppelin Loudspeaker Dock System for iPod and MP3 Players (Silver/Black)

Zeppelin is an integrated iPod speaker system from Bowers & Wilkins, makers of the speakers used to monitor the recording of much of the music on your iPod. Bowers & Wilkins developed its iPod speaker dock with the same exacting standards as the speakers that are used in Abbey Road Studios or Skywalker Ranch.


Heritage
At Bowers & Wilkins (B&W), the quest to develop the perfect speaker has lasted more than 40 years. The quest is to create a speaker that portrays a musical performance exactly as it was recorded, with zero coloration, as the artist intended it to be heard. Founder John Bowers instilled this passion in the company to pursue his dream of the ultimate speaker.

Technology
Not only is the shape of Zeppelin pleasing to the eye, but it also is based on sound acoustic principles: the less physical material there is around tweeters and mid-ranges, the better they sound. Zeppelin's rounded tapering ends aren't there just for show. By minimizing the baffle area around the drive units, the cabinet reduces diffraction effects, making for ultra-wide sound dispersion and a much smoother response. In other words, it sounds as good as it looks.



Simple Operation
Zeppelin is simple to set up and use: plug it in, place your iPod on the docking port, and hit the play button. The connections at the back let you play other sources through the Zeppelin or to channel images from your iPod to a television. And Zeppelin charges your iPod while it's docked.


Remote
Accompanying Zeppelin is a pebble-shaped remote, which allows you to change tracks and volume. The remote uses a CR2032 battery, which is included.

Compatibility
Zeppelin is compatible with all dockable iPods, including the iPod classic (3G, 4G, 5G, 5.5G, 6G), iPod touch, iPod nano (1G, 2G, 3G), and iPod mini.
