Hi!
Here's a review of the Bowers And Wilkins Z2 IOS Dock we've been discussing.
No, its not the original review I had planned to send to the list, I couldn't
find it again but this review does contain extra information that the older
review didn't.
Well I can say they were definitely here in the US in 1996 which is when
I auditioned several BW speakers. They may have gone away for a while
and now coming back again. At any rate, they make a fantastic product
and I probably would have gotten all BW speakers instead of Klipsch if
I could

able to afford the Z2 and I

Dane did you listen to the new BW Air, which is the bigger brother to
the z2? I have not heard the z2 nor the Air, and I have a tough time
justifying that purchase, since I can easily play my 8-ievices through
the liting-room set up or outdoors when the weather permits through a
nice pair of BW
I guess we are lucky, because we still have 3 high end audio stores
here in town, and Eugene, Oregon isn't that large of a town. I'm not
doing my part to keep them in business, though, because my last audio
purchase was the MM1 from Amazon.

Okay well i'm not sure what you're referring to here.
Airfoil is only used if you're planning to stream audio from your computer,
that is to say audio from your computer from sources other than iTunes which
has airPlay built-in.
I've been using Airfoil for the last 5 years and had no problems
I don't have a problem with Airfoil; just don't have any proper devices

I used one called Remote Speakers. It is quite accessible, and comes with a
winamp output plugin, so you can airplay directly from Winamp. I am finding
that using airplay is quite problematic. I am using this little device
called the Lario HD Music receiver, which is one of those adapters that

Ah yes, I've heard of Remote Speakers.
Airfoil is on a slightly larger scale, you can for example Hijack any device

Hijack JAWS and send it around the room or your network so therefore you can
send Winamp, Windows Media
