Alexa compatible smart speaker "Zeppelin" that is too beautiful

 

Great designs come back again and again .

B & W's smart speaker " Zeppelin " has a body that looks like an airship . Some people may be familiar with this look. Actually, there was an iPod dock speaker with almost the same design.

In detail, Zeppelin was born in 2007 as a speaker for iPod with a Dock connector, and has evolved into an AirPlay compatible model in 2011 and a model with Bluetooth function in 2015.

In addition to Bluetooth (aptX Adaptive) and AirPlay 2, Zeppelin, which has appeared as a new model, will be an Alexa compatible speaker and can be operated with voice commands.

The speaker unit is tweeter x 2, midrange x 2, subwoofer x 1. It is a horizontally long body for arranging so many units.

The analog input is gone and the connection to the player is basically wireless. It also supports high-resolution playback up to 24bit, and you can use multiple streaming services with the B & W dedicated app. If you want a speaker with a design that you will never get tired of, this is one of the highlights. The price you care about is $ 799 (about 91,000 yen).
