So, today is my birthday and I'm looking to get myself a nice set of speakers. What I'm looking at are the Bowers and Wilkins A5 and Zeppelin. Airplay is the main thing here.
What I wanted to know is how good audio quality is coming through the Airport Express, and whether getting an older MK1 Zeppelin and an Airport Express would be as good as either an A5 or a new Zeppelin Air.
I understand the Air will be better technically, because it has a better built in DAC (I'm unsure if the MK1 even had one) and has slightly better internals, but if I can get it for £300 as apposed to £450, my student budget wallet would be eternally grateful.
So yes, basically, does the Airport Express have good audio quality is essentially the question.
Thanks very much guys!
