Technical Specification

Performance: Frequency response in-room within 3dB from 35Hz to over 20kHz.

Output >108dB spl @ 1m on music material. Noise less than 15dB spl.

Overall distortion typically <0.02% at any frequency or level.

Inputs: Two digital inputs to SPDIF standard; 32kHz–96kHz sampling rates at up to 24 bit; MHR support. (A future software update will enable support for 192kHz.)

Construction: 2.5-way acoustic reflex system.

2x 160mm polypropylene high-efficiency long-throw custom drivers.

1x 25mm aluminium -dome tweeter, silver wire, short horn- loaded with protective grille.

Cabinet constructed from high-density MDF. Integral magnetic shielding and user-changeable real wood veneer acoustic damping side panels.

FIFO memory buffer input for the lowest possible jitter from almost any source.

Two precision 128x oversampling converters for bass, mid and tweeter signals.

Analogue gain and filtering using proprietary Meridian Class-A discrete amplification.

Digital and conversion electronics constructed using advanced surface-mount techniques and partitioned 4 -layer printed-circuit boards.

Three 75W power amplifiers, one for each of the drivers. Power amplifiers use a unique feedback topology and precision local error-correction systems to achieve a performance equivalent to the conversion system.

DSP:100MHz Motorola digital signal processor. Digital crossover at 2.6kHz.

Response correction for the whole system. Bass protection.

User tone controls. Volume and phase control.

Controls: Rear-panel controls for power On/Off.

MSR and RS232 port provide control over bass, treble tilt, listening axis, volume, time-compensated balance and absolute phase.

Front display: Eight-character display with system lights, can be blank.
