SUPPLIERS OF HIGH-END AUDIO VISUAL EQUIPMENT SINCE 1989
B&W ZEPPELIN - MACWORLD AWARD
At a glittering event in London’s 02 Arena, Apples premier supporting consumer magazine in the UK – MacWorld – announced it’s annual awards and I am delighted to be able to inform you that Zeppelin won the top prize within the Best Consumer Audio Product category.
Pitched against strong competition from JBL, FergusonHilletc., Zeppelin came out head and shoulders above the rest and was recognised for both it’s phenomenal sound quality and design.
The award category was sponsored by iPod User magazine (the sister publication to MacWorld) who had already awarded Zeppelin the coveted Editors Choice award in its spring issue. Concluding that review, Andrew Harrison remarks, “Peerless build quality immediately marks this iPod speaker apart from the crowd. It feels solid and exudes high-class attention to detail. And the Zeppelin’s audio quality soundly complements its design, giving a detailed and insightful sound, underpinned not by tubby one-note bass, but a tight and musical low end that gives real body to all music. B&W has ably translated its competence in loudspeaker design to an iPod speaker that you’d be proud to own – with a design that’ll really impress your friends.”

This is a particularly good award for Zeppelin as it is outside of the specialist sector that B&W is normally associated. This means that it introduces the brand to many new consumers and will continue to spread the word that B&W is all about true sound.
