Libratone Zipp wireless speakers review: Great looks, good sound, lots of features

The Zipp and Zipp Mini sound good, but they illustrate the distinction between a multi-room audio system and a whole-home audio system.

Portable AirPlay speaker has trade-offs

The Libratone Zipp uses a Wi-Fi-based protocol called PlayDirect to make connected music playback easier than ever. It works like a dream, but the trade-off may not be one you're willing to make.

Audio quality is scientific…until it isn’t. Until it comes into your home, or until you’re in the store listening, and you say “that sounds good”…or not.
