The editors liked
Excellent sound quality for a medium-sized room
AirPlay works very easily
Great design
This is the best iPod or iPad attach product in Australia today that is under $1
000. The sound is spectacular which is what one expects from a Hi Fi Company like Bowers & Wilkins.
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
The editors didn't like
It's so expensive
Setup for AirPlay could confuse newbies
Especially because there is no LCD screen
The weakness in the B&W Zeppelin Air
Has nothing to do with sound or even B&W but more to do with Apple's poor AirPlay technology
Which appears to be in its infancy and a long way away from the slick networking professionalism that Sonos delivers. At the end of the day the Zeppelin Air is more about great sound than networking.
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
No doubt about it, the Zeppelin Air ain’t cheap, costing a full £100 more than the original did when it was released three years ago. Yet its stylishness endures, it still sounds great, and now comes with added AirPlay, though there’s still no option ...
Great sound quality, Attractive design, AirPlay wireless streaming works well
Expensive, Docking stand is redundant if you're using AirPlay
The Bowers & Wilkins Zeppelin Air looks like a blimp but, unlike the Hindenberg, it's not a disaster. This iPod speaker dock's good looks, impressive sound quality and useful AirPlay features make it well worth checking out....
Abstract: If you have an iPod then you would surely know of the various docks available in the market and Bowers and Wilkins is a brand that you would definitely have heard about. Well couple of year's back Bowers and Wilkins had come with its dock. They again hit ...
Abstract: Switching between a docked iPhone and an AirPlay device isn't as slick as we'd like, but it works. There is a slight drop in audio quality with AirPlay compared to a docked portable, but either way you can expect a big, powerful sound with lashings of bas...

Admite señales de varias fuentes, tanto análogas (entrada minijack de 3.5 mm) como digitales (mini plug óptico) además de AirPlay; gran calidad de sonido
El brazo que tiene el conector tipo dock para el iPod o iPhone es frágil, por lo que te recomiendo lo manejes con cuidado y no le pongas un iPad
¿Buscas un equipo de sonido con una gran calidad, que tenga sonido estéreo con soporte de bajos, que lo puedas colocar tanto en la sala como en tu cuarto y de un diseño atractivo? No busques más, B&W viene al rescate con el Zeppelin Air....
Der B&W Zeppelin Air ist kein Schnäppchen, bietet aber guten Klang und das praktische Extra der Funkübertragung: Der Lautsprecher sorgt für bequemes Musikhören vom iPod. Die Bedienung des Zeppelin Air ist etwas kompliziert, setzt auf die eingebaute Airpla...
Abstract: Äußerlich bis auf wenige Details gleich geblieben, hat sich unter der Oberfläche des Zeppelin Air im Vergleich zu seinem Vorgänger einiges getan. Zum einen wurde die Anzahl der Verstärker von drei auf fünf erhöht. Jedes der verbauten Lautsprecherchassis w...
Sie wollen es modern, Sie wollen es stylish und Sie wollen, dass es gut klingt? Dann gibt es wahrlich nur ganz wenige Optionen – der Zeppelin Air ist eine der spannendsten davon. Die intelligent und sorgfältig überarbeitete Version des Zeppelin-Klassik...
