Meridian’s acclaimed active and DSP- based loudspeakers are unparalleled in the industry. Each unit includes not only carefully-chosen loudspeaker drivers and excellent cabinet design and acoustics, but also multiple power amplifiers and – in the case of DSP designs – D/A converters and the DSP power required to create crossovers, filters and control systems that would be completely impossible in a conventional speaker configuration.

The DSP loudspeaker is the ultimate expression of Meridian’s loudspeaker philosophy. DSP capability delivers crossover specifications that cannot be matched by conventional designs and bass extension vastly superior to other loudspeakers of the same volume, while keeping the signal in the digital domain until the last moment means

that there is an unbroken link between the recording studio or concert hall and your listening room. Thus, they sound unlike anything else you’ll hear.

Meridian active loudspeakers give each driver its own amplifier, in direct and close control of all its parameters, fed from a line-level crossover for superior performance.

The DSP3100 and its active analogue equivalent, the M3100, represent a breakthrough in compact loudspeakers. Available in vertical or horizontal centre configuration, they deliver an astonishing performance for their size, and are ideal for stereo or surround listening in smaller spaces. Their accuracy and uncoloured sound also makes them ideal for monitoring in recording and mastering studios.
