Yea I hesitated for years before I did it they are are not perfect but they are done right, makes other hifi looks like steam engines (nice and complicated and well put together but why ? ) They are a good proof of concept how hifi and home theater should be done . A pity they are the only game in town :-/ if others "get it" (including other brands and audiophiles ) this kind of solution would go down in price and improve at the same time . I'm a tech nerd :) I do like the underlying architecture of this system, I wish meridian could license their speaker-link MHR connection . Or if someone could make a conection standard for digital active speakers. I have used the processor much longer than the speakers. It all started when DVDA was hot , there where not many that offered 6ch 24/96k digital link from the player to the processor (now with hdmi everyone has it ) . The benefit of 24/96 may be questionable , but using an analog DA-AD-DA route via a traditional HT receiver will blow even that small chance to improvement away . This system is source transparent even trough the xover and sound degradation does not start until the the signal Reach the DAC and amp for that speaker driver . Strictly I could have bought some nice analog active speakers and maybe get better sound. But the Meridian solution is so neat just cat5 cables to the speakers -- Mnyb -------------------------------------------------------------------- Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH 2 x MeridianDSP5200 MeridianDSP5200HC 2 xMeridianDSP3100 +Rel Stadium 3 sub.
