My other half had been eying up the Zeppelin for several years and I finally took the plunge and bought him one for Christmas. I bought it from John Lewis for £449, but check their website because they also sell Grade B stock (this is returned and refurbished stock) for £399. Both version come with a 2 year guarantee. We have the latest model (as of December 2012) Zeppelin Air which includes the AirPlay function. AirPlay allows you to stream music from your computer/iPhone/iPod/iPad wirelessly via a WiFi connection. Apparently, you can steam sound from games too if you're that way inclined, but we haven't tried this. You can also get additional speakers, put them in ...  Read the complete review

I, like many, have been through many means of playing music from my iPod/iPhone in my bedroom...connected it to the back of my Hi-Fi via Auxiliary cable, had it connected directly to portable speakers and a couple of docks. They all play the music, yes, but when it comes to audio i'm a bit picky to say the least. I like to have a room filled with high quality sound that I can crank up when desired.

DESIGN, From any angle the B & W Zeppelin is a brilliant looking ...  Read the complete review

I spent absolutely ages in John Lewis (much to the annoyance of my girlfriend) trying to comparing several iPod docks from the major manufacturers in this field. Now I'm writing this review so you don't have to! The main thing that has to be considered when investing in a piece of kit like this is of course the sound quality. The Zeppelin is much heavier on the bass than many others out there and the depthness of sound is awesome - much better than the Bose counterparts and the Zeppelin mini. If you are someone who doesn't particularly like heavy bass, then I've found the equalizer on my iPod nano is sufficient to reduce it to a level to suit all ...  Read the complete review
