British speaker manufacturers have established their prestige and strong reputation over several decades, with brands such as KEF, PMC, and ATC well respected by audiophiles worldwide. Bowers & Wilkins sits comfortably alongside its peers, established in the mid-1960s and occupying a space at the forefront of audio engineering. The latest edition to their extensive range of speakers, the Bowers & Wilkins Zeppelin McLaren Edition, represents another collaboration in the brand’s history with a luxury car manufacturer. Having previously partnered with Aston Martin and BMW, this latest offering in conjunction with McLaren sees the arrival of a high-performance wireless speaker that’s swept up numerous awards from the leading tech review sites.
The first thing that gets your attention about the Bowers & Wilkins Zeppelin McLaren Edition is the design, which effortlessly incorporates visual cues from McLaren’s high-performance cars. It’s sleek and stylish, with smooth, ergonomic curves and a stunning combination of Galvanic Gray and Papaya Orange throughout the stand.
Under the cabinet, there’s the trademark refined, accurate audio performance that Bowers & Wilkins are renowned for, driving crisp and responsive sound reproduction across all frequencies. Delivering 24-bit high-resolution stereo sound, the Zeppelin McLaren Edition utilized Double Dome tweeters and FST midrange drive units with a deceptively powerful subwoofer for added kick.
It’s also ready to use with all the major music streaming services, including Spotify, TIDAL, Apple AirPlay 2, and Deezer, each accessed via the Bowers & Wilkins Music app. For music lovers who demand the best quality, the Bowers & Wilkins Zeppelin McLaren Edition is another outstanding collaboration from two titans of their respective industries.
