Hi Keith and Soren, First of all, Keith, the website is fine, they just have these weird numbers/graphics strings that Jaws reads before it actually says what the link is.
I had a quick look and I don't think you can compare this speaker which on their US webstore is listed for $400 with a Jambox, probably not even a Big Jambox and definitely not a $70 Beatbox or the Turtle Shell speaker from Outdoor Technology I posted about. The Libratone would be something you would have to compare to a Sonos Play:5 or a B&W Zeppelin Air and the Zip is actually their least expensive speaker, they also make one called Live which I think was $550 or $600 and another one I can't remember the name which is $1,300. These do sound like nice speakers and are probably very good, but like I said, they are targeted at a very different market. I already have my Sonos system everywhere in the house and personally are looking more for something very small and portable which sounds great for books, has a speakerphone in case I want to charge my phone yet move around and something I can throw in my backpack when I'm travelling. The reason why I am going to get the Turtle Shell speaker is mainly because it is made actually by a company that focuses on making a rugged product that can be used outdoors, it's made to withstand a bit of abuse whether it's a drop or a shower while it's sitting on the picknick table.

Lots of graphics, apparently. Amazon has Libratone Zipp for $449.00. Don't know if this is the same product package you're talking about. -----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Søren Jensen Sent: Wednesday, March 13, 2013 4:51 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Libratone Zipp speaker Hi all. I don't remember if those have been discussed here on the list before. If they have, I'll look back in the archive to see what people have said about them. Does someone have any experiences with this speaker? They sounds really amazing, with lots of nice features, great design and great sound. Libratone is a danish company, and the speakers are being soled world wide. The FAQ which is enough for me to fully understand how it all works and their website in generel is totally accessible. The setup and configuration of the speaker seems to be totally accessible as well, and they have an iPhone app which I can't use without the speaker, but the things I can reach in the app is fully accessible. The firmware can be updated through the app which I find amazing. All information, specs etc is described on their website, which I find really fantastic. It all seems really accessible out of the box, unlike many new devices which needs to be configured etc. Take a look on their website and let me know what you think: www.libratone.com Best regards: Søren Jensen Mail & MSN: s...@coolfortheblind.dk Website: http://www.coolfortheblind.dk/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VIPhone" Google Group.
