The DSP5200 takes the elegant appearance and advanced design of Meridian’s flagship DSP8000 and popular DSP7000 and delivers it in a compact package under 36in tall. Indeed, many of the features that make the 5200 a truly impressive smaller loudspeaker derive from the larger systems in the range. Ideal for more spacious as well as smaller rooms, these loudspeakers will do justice to any system, in almost any environment.
The
axis and input. The latest technology gives the DSP5200 uncompromised, precise detail with pinpoint imaging and dimensionality in both stereo and surround. Advanced signal processing packs dynamics and bass into a size that defies imagination. DSP controls allow correction of the frequency response in a variety of locations.
Cabinet design
An enhanced basket design with sturdy clamp rings delivers the very best performance from the drivers, which are chosen specifically for their sound. The stylish, curved and tapered cabinet both increases stiffness and improves HF dispersion for a more natural top end. Cabinet construction is of 19mm thick
port. This configuration, along with active operation and DSP correction, delivers a combination of smooth, powerful bass and very low
Inside the DSP5200
Each speaker incorporates an electronics panel in the rear part of the cabinet.
The speaker accepts digital signals and has two inputs, placed at the base of the cabinet for maximum neatness and ease of installation. The electronic design of the DSP5200 is entirely new, and takes advantage of the latest advances in component design as well as techniques and approaches employed on the DSP8000.
The latest miniaturized
The input receiver uses a FIFO (First In First Out) memory buffer for the lowest possible jitter from almost any source. At the heart of the 5200 is a new DSP system based around a 150MIPS processor, running brand new software. A
High resolution
The three 75W amplifiers themselves are again based on those in the DSP8000, with the latest error- correcting
The bottom line
The result of all this intensive research and careful, painstaking design is a digital loudspeaker system that out- performs anything of its size, while its visual design and elegance remain
Meridian products are carefully designed inside and out and the DSP5200 – available in a choice of black or silver high gloss lacquer, satin Santos rosewood, natural satin maple, satin stained cherry and black ash finishes
–is intended to look as good as it sounds.
And the sound is, simply, remarkable.
