The 808.2/808.2i can be connected directly to Meridian DSP loudspeakers to create a complete compact stereo system, with volume and other preamplifier controls provided by the loudspeakers via the MSR+ or the front panel. The 808.2i provides additional analogue and digital inputs allowing you to use it to control the other sources in your system.
The Meridian SpeakerLink connection provides both
•Connect the SpeakerLink output from the CD player to the SpeakerLink input on the DSP loudspeaker chosen as the master, using a SpeakerLink lead.
•Connect the SpeakerLink output from the master DSP loudspeaker to the SpeakerLink input on the other (slave) DSP loudspeaker, using a second SpeakerLink lead.
•Configure the loudspeakers as described in the Meridian DSP Loudspeaker User Guide.
•Configure to Type 1 if using an 808.2 or 808.2i with no external inputs, or Type 2 for an 808.2i with other inputs in use; see Choosing a standard setting, page 30.
