The Zeppelin Mini is an attention-grabber even before you’ve switched it on. Just like its bigger brother the Zeppelin, it’s a sleek, robust piece of design – the perfect partner to your iPod or iPhone.
The design of the docking arm makes the most of the functionality of your iPod, positioning it just above the surface of the speaker at an angle that’s perfect for tapping a touch screen or tracking a scroll wheel. It also allows you to rotate the iPod to the horizontal position – ideal if you like to skip through your playlists using cover-flow, or for playing music videos.
The Zeppelin Mini was developed with exactly the same acoustic engineering principles as Bowers & Wilkins used to make the speakers in the control room of Abbey Road Studios, so you can be sure of excellent sound reproduction. Advanced digital signal processing ensures all the subtleties of your music are beautifully preserved, no matter how loud you play it. While the Flowport system gives the speaker’s mighty bass driver the air it needs to breathe.
Lots of devices will happily connect with your Zeppelin Mini. Using the AUX socket at the back of the speaker, you can connect your CD player, DVD player, other MP3 players – in fact, almost any electronic device that plays music or sound. And it doesn’t end there. Using a device like Apple’s Airport Express, you could make Zeppelin Mini part of a wireless network, streaming music wirelessly from your computer’s hard drive.
This is not just a superb iPod speaker – it’s also a superb computer speaker. Plug your Mac or PC into Zeppelin Mini using the USB port, and you’ll be able to get the same stunning sound quality from your desktop or laptop as you would from your MP3 player. Even better, once it’s connected, you can control iTunes directly with Zeppelin Mini’s remote.
