The Mini is a compact speaker dock with a big future, and top-notch sound quality – we just hope software updates are made available sooner rather than later ...
Abstract: While the original Bowers & Wilkins Zeppelin stereo system got its name for literally being shaped like a blimp, the Zeppelin Mini takes a far more conservative design approach by adopting a cylindrical shape which takes up a smaller footprint. But th...
Great sound. Compact unit. Very stylish and solidly built.
Can't navigate menus and playlists from remote. 400 bucks doesn't buy you a USB cable or a printed manual. Bass is adequate but not impressive.

Smart, stylish aesthetic, Digital USB input provides cleaner sound, Works with all iPod and iPhone devices, Unique, rotating dock arm
Very aggressive high frequencies, No tone control, Poor off-axis response, Limited remote functions, High price for an iPod dock
The Zeppelin Mini looks less outlandish than its Hindenburg-sized older brother, but loses some of its larger-than-life performance in the shrinking process....
