See how Zeppelin Air and AirPlay can work together
In your hand
An iPod or iPhone is the perfect place to store your favourite music. Always to hand, and easily accessible. With Zeppelin Air you can listen without the need to dock. Simply select the track you want, and AirPlay lets you play it instantly. And if you move from one room to another, you can simply select a different Zeppelin Air and play it there, too. And its not just music: movies and apps also benefit.
Multiroom music
One Zeppelin Air is fantastic. But add more for an elegant multiroom system. All with the minimum of fuss. And no wires. You can select which room to play your current favourite track in using your computer and iTunes. Or simply select every Zeppelin Air in your house, and fill your home with pristine sound in party mode.
Apple Lossless
For wireless audio that sounds as good as wired, Zeppelin air uses AirPlay. AirPlay streams in Apple Lossless, which means that nothing is missing from the sound that comes out of the Zeppelin Air. Every brush of cymbal, each bowing of a string, every nuance of a singer’s delivery. It’s simply perfect sound, without wires.
Stream the Web
With Zeppelin Air it’s not just the music on your computer or iPod that is set free. Services such as Spotify and Last FM allow you to experience an endless array of new music. And now you can wirelessly stream all of that new content to Zeppelin Air, to enhance your enjoyment further. You can even boost the sound of YouTube and movie streaming services. Providing you with more entertainment that you dreamt possible.
Stream apps
Apps are revolutionising the way we think about software. Small applications, dedicated to a single purpose that expand the possibilities of iPhones, iPads, iPods and soon computers, too. All that was missing was great sound – until now. AirPlay not only allows you to stream music to Zeppelin Air; you can also send it the audio from many apps, including audio services and podcasts. The revolution just gathered pace.
Stream games
It’s official; the iPod touch is the most popular portable gaming device on the planet. And the iPhone and iPad aren’t too far behind. Now, with Zeppelin Air and AirPlay, you can enjoy that gaming experience at home, and get great sound without resorting to headphones. AirPlay allows you to stream the audio from many games directly to Zeppelin Air, for an even more involving gaming experience.
