The Meridian 500 Series

Introduction

The Meridian 500 Series is a unique system of digital, analogue, and video components designed to meet the demand for absolute quality, ease of use, and lasting value.

The flexibility of the Meridian 500 Series is such that you can assemble a system as simple or as complex as you need, perfectly suited to your musical and environmental requirements, and with the ability to add to it or change it at a later date should your requirements change.

Each Meridian 500 Series component is housed in a matching slim line case. Front panel controls provide access to the most important functions, and a full range of functions is available from the Meridian System Remote using a simple and intuitive control interface.

500 Series communications

The 562V Multimedia Controller is part of the Meridian 500 series of advanced digital, analogue, and video components, and these incorporate a sophisticated communications link, to allow you to control any combination of units using a single remote, and ensure that they will work together as a fully integrated system.

The communications system also allows you to extend your hi-fi system into two or three rooms, with the ability to control the sources in one room from the controller in another room.

Professional features

The 500 Series also includes features for professional users, including RS232 computer control.
