Overview
Zeppelin Mini is an integrated speaker system from Bowers & Wilkins, makers of the speakers used to monitor the recording of much of the music on your iPod. B&W developed its iPod speakers with the same exacting standards as the speakers that are used in Abbey Road Studios and Skywalker Ranch.

Zeppelin Mini is the embodiment of over 40 years of experience and know-how in speaker design, all in a single package. Zeppelin Mini utilizes the same technologies developed for dedicated high-end speakers, applying them to an iPod speaker very similar to its big brother, Zeppelin. In addition to great sound you are also awarded with a product design stemming from clever ergonomic thought and a beautiful 360-degree visual appeal.

Zeppelin Mini allows you to have real hi-fi stereo sound wherever you need it; upstairs, downstairs, in your office or second home.

Design
Bowers & Wilkins has complimented the iPod user interface by designing a docking port that allows the user to grasp the iPod as if it were in the hand as normal. It also cleverly accommodates iPod/iPhone/Touch of differing depth through a spring loaded docking arm that flexes to accommodate each model without adaptors or other manual adjustment.

Moving a step on from Zeppelin's intuitive docking arm design, Zeppelin Mini features a dock that can be effortlessly rotated through 90 degrees in order to access Apple's Cover Flow system or watch videos and enhanced pod casts.

Heritage
At Bowers & Wilkins, the quest to develop the perfect speaker has lasted more than 40 years. The quest is to create a speaker that portrays a musical performance exactly as it was recorded, with zero coloration, as the artist intended it to be heard. Founder John Bowers instilled this passion in the company, to pursue his dream of the ultimate speaker.

Technology
Reduced in size, but not in sound, Zeppelin Mini maintains the same high standards for sound quality and design, set by Zeppelin B&W's unrivaled expertise in loudspeaker design is exemplified by the Mini's use of two newly developed, full-range, 3-inch glass fiber, drivers whose uniquely slotted cone and very long-throw "motor," deliver unprecedented range and dynamics, for so compact a transducer.

B&W's extensive experience in digital signal processing (DSP) proved just as important, supplying advanced processing, including proprietary dynamic equalization that maximizes the drivers' abilities to produce jaw-dropping loudness and fullness.

Zeppelin Mini's two leading-edge Class D ("digital") amplifiers ensure plenty of power from ultra-compact, nearly cold-running circuitry.

The USB connection in the back of the unit allows for:

• Audio streaming from iPod via docking arm
• Audio streaming from PC/Mac via mini USB connection located on back of the unit
• iPod/PC/Mac sync (when Zeppelin Mini is in standby): Synchronize iTunes and the docked iPod
• Firmware upgrades to keep product up-to-date with new iPhone/iPod releases

Zeppelin Mini will charge the iPod/iPhone when docked.

Simple Operation
Zeppelin Mini is simple to set up and use: plug it in, place your iPod on the docking port and hit the play button. The connections at the back let you play other sources through the unit.

Remote
Zeppelin Mini comes with a pebble-like remote, which allows you to change tracks, volume and mode.

Compatibility
iPods (iPod touch 1st generation, iPod touch 2nd generation, iPod nano 2nd generation, iPod nano 3rd generation, iPod nano 4th generation, iPod Classic), iPhone, iPhone 3GS, iPhone3G

Zeppelin's power supply operates on all mains voltages from 100V to 240V--if you take it to a different country, it will automatically sense the incoming voltages and adjust itself accordingly.
