Creative ZiiSound D5x & DSx

Not compatible with a home network for greater wireless control; limited control and automation; building up a greater, modular system can get expensive

apt-X Bluetooth gives CD quality wirelessly; multi-channel set up can be set up dynamically to fit your listening environment

Not compatible with a home network for greater wireless control; limited control and automation; building up a greater, modular system can get expensive

Creative ZiiSound D5x

The ZiiSound D5x is Creative's flagship product from its line-up of wireless modular speaker systems. It's a flexible system that will play audio from pretty much any Bluetooth- enabled device, including the iPhone and iPad.

The best wireless solution for the price; good-looking design with seamless control

No built in battery so no portability

As an all-round package, I’m impressed with the Creative ZiiSound D5x. Many traditional iPod speakers lack quality or are dependent on a cheap remote for control. The D5x side-steps this problem neatly, making the connected iPod entirely wireless.
