Well I've had my Zeppelin for just about 2 years now and it has been flawless up until this last week when I upgraded to an Ipod Touch 64 Gig. A couple of times last week when I docked the new Ipod, I got a flashing red light. I overcame this by turning on the Zeppelin before docking the Ipod. Only happened twice and hasn't happened since then. Today when I docked the new Ipod I got a background hum/buzz that goes away only when I either disconnect the Ipod or turn off the Zeppelin. As soon as I play a song, the buzz returns.
It seems to come from either the HF or MF drivers or both but mostly seems to come from the HF. I have discovered that I can slightly lift the right corner away from the 30 pin connector and make it stop while maintaining playback, however the charging capability is lost when I do this. When I connect my original Ipod nano, same symtoms... It has to go in for service I feel. I hope I am within warranty, can't remember exactly when I got it. Have to call Apple store online for a copy of my invoice. Don't remember if I registered it, pretty sure I did though.
I filled out a contact form to support via B&W website and await a response. I have all the confidence in B&W based on prior experience and have absolutely loved the product(s) so far. Just sharing for sake of awareness.
Edit: Forgot to mention, I did download and install the current settings only after discovering the problem and resetting Ipod and Zeppelin. This is the first update I have installed on the Zeppelin serial number beginning with Z-0.
