the 5200 needs some support especially as home theater, I figured the smaller Meridian worked better in a small room. And the larger ones are awfully expensive I've bougth the dealers demo units for my 5.1 setup, I hesitated for 5-6 years to get dsp's ( due to thier ridiculous price ) but a technical failure in my old stuff forced me to decide. I'm also being sensible here as i figured that an analog sub would do fine below 50Hz :) the G68 room compensation and steep subwoofer filter makes it mate really well anyway. The Meridian stuff is wonderfull, but at a price . I do live on a relatively " normal " incomme. saddly in botique hifi the price is a part of the product, so is costly design. But Meridian delivers, to many expensive hifi things is mostly failed science projects with tubes and golden handles, read HiFi+ ;) they seems to have the highest cult-object to engineered-hifi ratio ever -- Mnyb -------------------------------------------------------------------- Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH 2 x MeridianDSP5200 MeridianDSP5200HC 2 xMeridianDSP3100 +Rel Stadium 3 sub.
