It was soon followed by the DSP6000, the first loudspeaker to include DSP – Digital Signal Processing – to process and enhance the vital functions of an audio system. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\nThe DSP approach also eliminates the space, power, and thermal management requirements for other system components and, significantly, creates a system in which the individual components are all perfectly matched and sonically balanced.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \n\n\nA DSP Loudspeaker includes the entire system’s electronics inside the enclosure – the only thing that’s lacking is the audio source – providing dramatically increased efficiency, and enabling it to deliver a level of performance equivalent to a passive design of eight times its physical volume. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\nThe Special Edition loudspeakers share the same enclosures and are visually identical to previous models (with the exception of the clamp rings).

These performance-improving factors impact choices of materials, shape, and even finish. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\nLoudspeaker enclosures should be completely inert and make no sonic contribution to the sound at all. Meridian utilizes “soundless” materials for the enclosure – notably Meridium in DSP8000SE and DSP7200SE. It is rigid and thus ensures you hear the only the loudspeaker – not the cabinet.

The G55’s robust chassis contains five identical 100 watt amplifiers based on Meridian’s award winning DSP8000 amplifier technology. When combined with a Meridian Surround controller, such as G65, this multi-channel amplifier will form the core of a 5.1 high performance analogue theatre system.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\nEquipped with input connectivity choices, the G55 includes both single ended and balanced analogue inputs. Balanced inputs provide the ultimate in noise rejection and are the connection method of choice from a G65 surround controller. For larger and more demanding systems, the G55 incorporates a unique bridging system for higher power and flexibility. In this mode, four of the five channels can be bridged, providing two channels of 300 watts, and a single channel of 100 watts. This provides optimum performance with any loudspeaker in any room location.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\nThe G55 contains five amplifier modules featuring a symmetrical design with full electronically balanced inputs. Both balanced and unbalanced inputs are provided, but in fact the unbalanced inputs are converted to balanced before they enter the amplifier itself. This “Super Balanced” design provides the highest quality music while keeping noise at a minimum. Another Meridian innovation is a soft start circuit that eliminates any turn on and off “thumps” that bedevil lesser designs. \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\nSpecial attention has been paid to ensure the amplifiers deliver the power that is required at any given moment. Massive twin low-noise toroidal power transformers provide power to no less than 25 selected pairs of output devices, carefully temperature-controlled for optimum operating characteristics and efficiency. The result is a clear, open sound with detail as well as punch where it is required – at any volume level.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n \n\nThe G55 includes the latest power amp developments from Meridian, first employed in the flagship DSP8000 Digital Loudspeaker systems, and share many common design parameters.

These combine to provide incredible control and speed for fast, tight bass and outstanding sound quality from a passive loudspeaker. \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\nWith balanced analogue inputs and 12-volt trigger, G57 compliments both Meridian 800 and G Series in either a two-channel system, or, as the main channels of a high performance analogue theatre when combined with G55.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n \n\nFive discrete 100-watt mono amplifiers ensure maximum channel separation, perfect for analogue theatre systems. \u003cbr\u003e\n\n\nMeridian “Super Balanced” technology provides balanced operation from single-ended connections, providing more music with less noise. \u003cbr\u003e\n\n\nDual binding post per channel allow for bi-wiring of passive loudspeakers for clearer sound and better bass. \u003cbr\u003e\n\n\nSingle-ended and balanced inputs ensure the broadest compatibility with any stereo or surround controller. \u003cbr\u003e\n\n\nCapacitor free signal path ensures fast and accurate low frequency control for outstanding bass reproduction. \u003cbr\u003e\n\n\n12-volt on\/off triggers make for simple and care free operation. \u003cbr\u003e\n\n\nStandby mode maintains voltage rails eliminating “warm up” time for instant optimum sound quality. \n\u003cbr\u003e\n\nFull DC\/thermal protection for carefree operation at any volume level.\u003cbr\u003e\nV \n\nDESIGN:\u003cbr\u003e\n\nG55 features a double-skinned, bead blasted metal chassis with glass accents, making it instantly identifiable as a G Series component.

This makes for simple, care free, and efficient operation. This trigger is optically isolated from the amplifier itself, eliminating any passage of noise.

Two channels of 200 watts of clean power provide breathtaking performance from any passive loudspeaker. Like the G55 multi-channel amplifier, G57 is based on innovations in amplifier design first introduced in Meridian’s flagship DSP8000 Loudspeaker. G57 is equally at home partnering with 800 or G Series. When combined with G55 and a Meridian Surround Controller, the G57 becomes an integral part of a 7.1 analogue theatre system.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nWhile providing 200 watts per channel, the G57 can be bridged to provide a staggering 1,000 watts of mono power. This allows a system to grow from a single G57 in stereo, to a pair in mono for a reference level amplifier combination. Meridian’s “Super Balanced” operation internally balances even single ended signals for the best sound quality.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nVThe G57 contains two amplifier modules, featuring a symmetrical design with fully electronically balanced inputs. Meridian employs a soft start circuit that eliminates any turn on and turn off “thumps.” Both balanced and unbalanced inputs are provided, with the unbalanced inputs converted to balanced before entering the amplifier itself. This “Super Balanced” design provides the highest quality music, while keeping noise at a minimum. All of this produces one of the most musical amplifiers available. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nSpecial attention has been paid to ensuring that the amplifiers can deliver the power that is required at any given moment. Massive twin low-noise toroidal power transformers provide power to no less than four selected pairs of output devices fed by four audiophile-grade smoothing capacitors per channel. Each channel is carefully temperature-controlled for optimum operating characteristics and efficiency. The result is a clear, open sound with deep controlled bass. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nSharing many common design parameters developed for the power amplifiers in Meridian’s flagship DSP8000 Digital Loudspeaker systems, G57 is designed to provide the best performance with any passive loudspeaker. These innovations include a unique, ultra-low-feedback design and capacitor-free signal path. These combine to provide incredible control and speed for fast tight bass and outstanding sound quality from a passive loudspeaker. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nWith balanced analogue inputs and 12-volt trigger, G57 compliments both Meridian 800 and G Series in either a two-channel system, or, as the main channels of a high performance analogue theatre when combined with G55. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nTwo discrete 200-watt mono amplifiers ensure maximum channel separation perfect for high performance stereo systems. \u003cbr\u003e\n\nMeridian “Super Balanced” technology provides balanced operation from single ended connections, providing more music with less noise. \u003cbr\u003e\n\nDual binding post per channel allow for bi-wiring of passive loudspeakers for clearer sound and better bass. \u003cbr\u003e\n\nSingle-ended and balanced inputs ensure the broadest compatibility with any stereo or surround controller. \u003cbr\u003e\n\nCapacitor free signal path ensures fast and accurate low frequency control for outstanding bass reproduction. \u003cbr\u003e\n\n12-volt on\/off triggers make for simple and care free operation. \u003cbr\u003e\n\nStandby mode maintains voltage rails eliminating “warm up” time for instant, optimum sound quality. \u003cbr\u003e\n\nFull DC\/thermal protection for carefree operation at any volume level\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \n\nG57 is constructed of a bead blasted, metal chassis with glass accents that surround an additional inner chassis. This double skinned approach protects delicate signals inside the G57 to be isolated from outside noise. This is just one of the means that Meridian employs to deliver lifelike performance while keeping an eye on industrial design. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\nDesigned for the ultimate in performance and flexibility, G57 incorporates a unique bridging circuit that reconfigures both channels into one mono channel. In this mode, two channels are combined to provide 1,000 watts of power - this makes for a simple upgrade path that allows you to start with one G57 in stereo and then add another for higher performance.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\nA 12-volt trigger input allows the G57 to be activated from your preamp or surround controller. This makes for simple, care free, and efficient operation. This trigger is optically isolated from the amplifier, thus eliminating any chance of noise. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\nUnlike other amplifiers, G57 maintains a standing voltage on the power rails and supply components. As a result, you do not have to wait for the amplifier to “warm up” before reaching its optimum performance. This means great performances as soon as the system is turned on. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\nFor custom installations, G57 uses the same G Series Rack kit making it simple and easy to install.

Unfortunately, timing can vary, especially when reading discs. This is “jitter”, degrading music's sense of space and diminishing realism. Meridian's multiple “First In, First Out” buffering system minimises jitter, ensuring perfect timing and improved clarity. You enjoy a clearer feeling of the instruments and their interrelationship.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nMHR was the first approved encryption method for transferring high definition digital audio between components.

One is a 3.5mm stereo socket for the connection of earbuds and similar devices, which presents an output impedance of 2Ω to suit these devices. The other two sockets offer an exceptionally low impedance (around 3mΩ) and are standard 1\/4in stereo (tip-ring-sleeve) types, carrying both channels. They can be used to connect two pairs of headphones, or to attach a single pair of headphones wired with separate cords for left and right drivers, thus offering the opportunity to reduce headphone crosstalk.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \n\nIn addition to simply replaying stereo audio at the highest possible quality via headphones, the outputs also include two “Analogue Spatial Processing” modes, i and ii, which replace the typical “in the head” experience of headphone listening with a smooth, natural feeling of spatiality that is much more like listening on a pair of loudspeakers in front of the listener. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nThe USB conversion system is powered from the interface, meaning that when it is disconnected, all digital circuitry in the unit is deactivated. The fully asynchronous USB 2.0 interface supports signals at up to 192kHz\/24-bit sampling and includes Meridian resolution enhancement techniques such as oversampling and Meridian’s unique Apodising filter. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nFilters are critical in digital audio. Commonly they introduce distortion and harshness because of \"pre-ringing\". Early digital recordings suffer from harshness too, due to primitive filters. After painstaking research, Meridian developed a special filter that avoids pre-ringing, so it can be steeper, cleaning up the effects of early filters. The result: a better, cleaner sound from recordings old and new. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nSourced from the original studio master recording as approved by the creative team, MQA combines an advanced new digital sampling technology that captures extremely high frequency timing and detail in an audio signal with an equally novel system to “encapsulate” that data into a form for delivery using any lossless file format or streaming. The listener’s decoder reconstructs the entire original signal, bringing up an indicator confirming that what they are hearing is exactly the same as the original master. Without the decoder, the listener enjoys CD quality reproduction. Its most advanced form, “MQA Studio”, uses the technology in the studio to generate an even higher quality master recording as the source. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nTechnical Specifications:-\u003cbr\u003e\nDESIGN: \u003cbr\u003e\nDespite its diminutive size, Meridian Prime echoes the design elements of any other Meridian product, including a double skinned, bead blasted metal chassis found on Meridian’s full size components.

That same year Meridian entered the emerging home theatre market with another first, the Meridian Digital Theatre. This concept was based on the company’s new range of digital loudspeakers and the 565. The Digital Theatre and the 565 won more than ten awards in the first twelve months of production.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nG65 continues this legacy with high performance, connectivity, and ease of use. When partnered with the HD621, the G65 features a comprehensive input capability to accommodate the widest range of audio and video sources. Now equipped with SpeakerLink and balanced analogue outputs, G65 is equally at home in Meridian Digital Theatres and with analogue loudspeaker-based systems.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nG65, named in honour of 565, is now the definitive surround controller second only to the flagship 861, but deriving many of its capabilities and performance from its big brother.

Trifield fully decodes the stereo stage for left, centre and right front-stage loudspeakers, instead of solely left and right, giving it a more stable image.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nMeanwhile, Meridian’s Trifield implementation extracts surround information from the recording, where present, using it to provide ambience at the rear for example, for an enhanced and immersive listening experience. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nThe Cinema preset in G65, when combined with HD621, can up-sample discrete movie formats to higher resolutions that are natively available on the disc or incoming digital stream. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nCentral to the G65 is a powerful DSP engine made up of five Freescale processor devices delivering 750 MIPS (million instructions per second). All processing is carried out at high sample rates and with up to 48-bit precision, far beyond human hearing. This DSP engine is also responsible for G65’s comprehensive bass management system which can support up to three separate subwoofers, and for managing the up to 60 filters created by Meridian’s Room Correction software.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nG65 includes multiple analogue and digital audio inputs including: Meridian MMHR SmartLink for multichannel connection to a Meridian HD621; SpeakerLink inputs for Meridian Streaming endpoints, Toslink optical digital inputs for connection to set-top boxes, etc; and configurable multichannel analogue inputs for connection to multi-channel music sources. All analogue inputs are processed at 24-bit, 96 kHz resolution. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nG65 offers menu options to control advanced SpeakerLink functionality, including Enhanced Bass Alignment, Centre Elevation, Bass, Tilt, Axis and the new Source Legends custom labelling capability in Meridian DSP Loudspeakers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nDESIGN\u003cbr\u003e\nFeaturing a double skinned, bead-blasted metal chassis with glass accents, G65 provides high-performance with great looks.

Meridian loudspeakers contain a complete, matched audio system with efficient DSP crossovers, multiple DACs and driver-specific amplifiers, giving higher overall quality, less power use, and the performance of a traditional loudspeaker eight times the physical volume.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nTraditional audio systems often require large, expensive cables to maintain their performance. Meridian's SpeakerLink uses an “Ethernet style” cable that delivers pristine digital sound and control down a single cable between Meridian components. The result is simple, unobtrusive, and cost-effective cables that are easy to install\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nLoudspeaker enclosures often vibrate, colouring the sound, making it less lifelike. Our most advanced loudspeakers use a cabinet construction material unique to Meridian: Meridium features highest-grade laminated plywood layers bonded to an aluminium core, allowing the loudspeaker to reproduce music accurately without adding its own sound.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nEach sample of a digital recording must remain evenly spaced in time. Unfortunately, timing can vary, especially when reading discs. This is “jitter”, degrading music's sense of space and diminishing realism. Meridian's multiple “First In, First Out” buffering system minimises jitter, ensuring perfect timing and improved clarity. You enjoy a clearer feeling of the instruments and their interrelationship.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nFilters are critical in digital audio. Commonly they introduce distortion and harshness because of \"pre-ringing\". Early digital recordings suffer from harshness too, due to primitive filters. After painstaking research, Meridian developed a special filter that avoids pre-ringing, so it can be steeper, cleaning up the effects of early filters. The result: a better, cleaner sound from recordings old and new.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nWhen a centre-channel loudspeaker is below the video display, that's where the sound seems to emanate, not from the screen, detracting from the experience. Loudspeakers behind the screen introduce other problems. DSP in a Meridian centre loudspeaker psychoacoustically raises the sound image to centre-screen – where we expect it for the most involving movie or concert experience.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nHigh or low, all sounds travel at the same speed, so all the sounds from a live musical event arrive at your ear at the same time, whatever frequencies they contain. Loudspeakers, however, have a problem when playing low frequency sounds at the same time as mid and high frequencies – the bass arrives late, and the deeper the sound, the later it arrives. This delayed bass causes music to lose its impact and reduces the sense of the recorded space – it is often described as “boomy”.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nThe goal is to have time-accurate loudspeakers, where all reproduced frequencies start and end at the same time. In a loudspeaker, this timing is affected by the crossover, driver, and enclosure \u2028type. To eliminate the delay between low, and mid and high frequencies, Meridian has designed a combination of digital filters and time delays for the mid and high frequencies.

Power-efficient, active DSP crossovers are individually tailored to distribute music to each speaker, bringing your music to life. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nSpeakerlink:\u003cbr\u003e\nTraditional audio systems often require large, expensive cables to maintain their performance. Meridian's SpeakerLink uses an “Ethernet style” cable that delivers pristine digital sound and control down a single cable between Meridian components. The result is simple, unobtrusive, and cost-effective cables that are easy to install.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nFifo Buffering:\u003cbr\u003e\nEach sample of a digital recording must remain evenly spaced in time. Unfortunately, timing can vary, especially when reading discs. This is “jitter”, degrading music's sense of space and diminishing realism. Meridian's multiple “First In, First Out” buffering system minimises jitter, ensuring perfect timing and improved clarity. You enjoy a clearer feeling of the instruments and their interrelationship.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e       \n\n\nMeridian Apodising Filter:\u003cbr\u003e\nFilters are critical in digital audio. Commonly they introduce distortion and harshness because of \"pre-ringing\". Early digital recordings suffer from harshness too, due to primitive filters. After painstaking research, Meridian developed a special filter that avoids pre-ringing, so it can be steeper, cleaning up the effects of early filters. The result: a better, cleaner sound from recordings old and new.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n \nWide Range Driver:\u003cbr\u003e\nLoudspeakers use crossovers to “divide” music into bands their drivers can reproduce. This introduces distortion, reducing sound quality – particularly on human voice recordings. Designing a single driver for both mid and high frequencies made a crossover within the vocal range unnecessary, avoiding distortion and reproducing more lifelike vocals at all volume levels.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nEnhanced Bass Alignment (EBA)\u003cbr\u003e\nHigh or low, all sounds travel at the same speed, so all the sounds from a live musical event arrive at your ear at the same time, whatever frequencies they contain. Loudspeakers, however, have a problem when playing low frequency sounds at the same time as mid and high frequencies – the bass arrives late, and the deeper the sound, the later it arrives. This delayed bass causes music to lose its impact and reduces the sense of the recorded space – it is often described as “boomy”.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nThe goal is to have time-accurate loudspeakers, where all reproduced frequencies start and end at the same time. In a loudspeaker, this timing is affected by the crossover, driver, and enclosure \u2028type. To eliminate the delay between low, and mid and high frequencies, Meridian has designed a combination of digital filters and time delays for the mid and high frequencies. This solution enables the mid and high frequencies to “wait” for the low frequencies, delivering perfectly-timed music playback.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nMid and high frequencies are delayed to time-align them, while upper bass is delayed with a special type of patented filter. These features must \u2028be implemented entirely in the digital domain, making them impossible to achieve in any passive or analogue-active loudspeaker design.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nEnhanced Bass Alignment provides accurate time-alignment of the drivers in the system, delivering exceptional imaging and a clear, transparent, more life like sound.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nTechnical Specifications:- \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nAUDIO INPUTS\u003cbr\u003e\nMeridian SpeakerLink connector (RJ45)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nAUDIO OUTPUTS\u003cbr\u003e\nMeridian SpeakerLink connector (RJ45)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nPERFORMANCE\u003cbr\u003e\nPeak SPL: 120dB @ 1m\u003cbr\u003e\nFrequency response: 30Hz - 40 kHz\u003cbr\u003e\nHorizontal dispersion: 120° @ 20Hz - 10kHz, 70° @ 18kHz (-6dB)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nAMPLIFIERS\u003cbr\u003e\nTweeter: 2 x Class-D amplifiers bridged for \u0026gt; 100W into 8 Ohms\u003cbr\u003e\nMid-range drivers (each): 2 x Class-D amplifiers bridged for \u0026gt; 100W into 8 Ohms\u003cbr\u003e\nBass drivers (each): 2 x Class-D amplifiers bridged for \u0026gt; 100W into 8 Ohms\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nTWEETER\u003cbr\u003e\nBeryllium dome with diffraction expansion technology\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nMID-RANGE DRIVERS\u003cbr\u003e\n2 x 100mm with woven polypropylene cone\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nBASS DRIVERS\u003cbr\u003e\n2 x 160mm long-throw, high-output with titanium voice coil\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nFRONT PANEL CONTROLS\u003cbr\u003e\nOn\/off rocker switch, Fuse holder, IR window\u003cbr\u003e\nRocker switch selects “Right”, “L + R”, “Left or Centre”\u003cbr\u003e\nRS232 socket – 3.5mm minijack (long version – 18.6mm)\u003cbr\u003e\nLED indicators show power status and configuration settings\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nDISPLAY\u003cbr\u003e\nLED indicators to show power status and configuration settings\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nPOWER\u003cbr\u003e\nIEC mains cable included with loudspeaker for connection to rough-in box \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nDIMENSIONS \/ WEIGHT\u003cbr\u003e\nHEIGHT: 1230mm [48.5in] (Excludes frame)\u003cbr\u003e\nWIDTH: 203mm [8in]\u003cbr\u003e\nDEPTH: 102mm [4in]\u003cbr\u003e\nWEIGHT: 16 kg [33 lbs]\n\n\n\n \n\n","brand":"Meridian","offers":[{"title":"(each)","offer_id":57415228391756,"sku":"MERIDIANDSP750","price":6666.67,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Meridian RF600 - Back Box for DSP750 (each)","offer_id":57423904801100,"sku":"MERIDIANRF600","price":208.33,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1053\/6891\/2204\/files\/Meridian-DSP750.jpg?v=1777554856"},{"product_id":"meridian-reference-dsp8000-xe-active-loudspeaker","title":"Meridian Reference DSP8000 XE Active Loudspeaker","description":"\u003ch3\u003eThe Next Generation Loudspeaker\u003c\/h3\u003e\nDSP8000 XE is the first product to emerge from Meridian’s groundbreaking Extreme Engineering Programme; a result of years of investment and research at the extreme edge of audio design and built upon the fundamental and unique elements of Meridian’s approach to delivering authentic, natural and lifelike sound.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nA new design concept, Meridian’s Precision Sonic Transport, uses innovative techniques and processes which ensure the entire journey taken by an audio signal through a product maintains maximum sonic fidelity, so that the listener is immersed in authentic and realistic sound.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eConstruction\u003c\/h3\u003e\nSeparate head-unit isolates the all-new tweeter and mid-range driver from the main enclosure.
