Against the background of the short life cycle of portable acoustics, the 8-year-old B&W Zeppelin looks like a long-lived old man. And all because B&W did not flirt with fashion, but tried to create acoustics that can not grow old.
150 watts of power
Zeppelin is a gigantic airship (weight almost 7 kg) that lands on the table, taking up all the free space there. At its heart of the Zeppelin is a massive 50W 6-inch subwoofer that is larger than many portable speakers. In addition, both midrange drivers are equipped with separate 50W amplifiers, and there is a DSP processor on board for additional digital signal processing.
Welcome to the hi-fi club
All in all, Zeppelin seems like a great way to get into the world of hi-fi sound without the hassle of gold wires and all that crap. At the same time, the Zeppelin is not too picky about the quality of the audio signal and handles well with streams with a low bitrate. The only thing that slightly spoils the picture is the strange nature of low frequencies in bass music, there are too many of them and they seem to play separately from other instruments.
Nothing extra
Functionality corresponds to the principle "set, set, forget". There is no USB for charging gadgets or a remote control. Only Bluetooth, mini-jack to connect the player directly and LAN to work with Apple AirPlay. With it, Apple gadget owners can stream lossless audio without quality loss. Another advantage of AirPlay is that the sound is transmitted to the speaker using Wi-Fi, so you can freely move around the apartment with an iPhone in your pocket and this will not affect the connection to the speaker in any way.
