DESCRIPTION

New My-Ti Tweeter
Stiff, light and with high efficiency, the new Mylar®/titanium-composite tweeter offers far better high-frequency performance without the high-Q breakup mode associated with metal domes and cones.

Edge-Driven Tweeters
With more voice-coil surface area to dissipate heat, these tweeters provide higher power handling than smaller balanced-dome tweeters.

Reduced Nominal Impedance
The new GTO speakers have a nominal impedance of 2 ohms.  Therefore, they extract all the power from amplifiers and head units, which are normally designed to increase their power when driving 2-ohm loads.  The actual minimum impedance of GTO speakers is around 3 ohms, thus offering enough safety against potential overheating of low-quality BTL amps in less expensive head units.

Low-Q Woofer Design
The improved woofer parameters (lower Qts) offer good bass extension and better transient response in typical mounting locations.

Plus One® Cones
By offering more cone surface than competing models of the same size, the new GTO speakers provide higher efficiency and better bass response.

Built-In Tweeter-Level Control
Most models feature a switch to reduce tweeter output level to match personal listening preferences or different mounting locations.

UniPivot™ Rotating Tweeter
The tweeter is mounting in a 15o angle and can be rotated to point at the listening position.  This leads to more uniform high-frequency response between left and right channels for speakers mounted in off-axis factory locations.

Bowers & Wilkins Zeppelin Wins EISA Award

Bowers & Wilkins Zeppelin has won the EISA European Sound Stage 2008 Award.  The official quote from EISA sums up this new generation iPod speaker dock.

"Glamorously shaped and fabulously well thought-out, the B&W Zeppelin benefits from the technical heritage of one of the most renowned loudspeaker Brands in the world.  Born to be the bridge between traditional high-end audio and the newest generations of music lovers, the Zeppelin extends the appeal and capabilities of the ubiquitous iPod range.  Beneath the sculptured enclosures are five transducers designed by Bowers & Wilkins (two tweeters, two mid/bass units and one subwoofer) driven by 100W of efficient Class D amplification and with custom DSP to help optimise its bass performance in the normal living room.  So the Zeppelin not only looks charismatic but also sounds deeply impressive."
