G61r Has Room Correction.


No 18 in the Hall of fame smile I have simple tastes; I am content to settle for the best:
GIK monster bass panels, rear wall. QNAP TVS 471i3. Roon into DSP5200SE via 210/ 218 zone... Explorer 2. Bluesound Pulse 2, Mini & Flex. 596v1, 518, Foxsat HD, Sony BDP, Pioneer 5090, 2 Chromecast's for LRB videos. MS200 to F80 for a Roon zone

It has room correction incorporated. Apart from that I think they are identical, but a browse of their respective datasheets on the Meridian Info site should tell all.

Cheers

Functional, they are identical apart from room correction. Also, I think the G61 doesn't have the USB audio input (no big deal). Hard to say if Meridian played around with the internal gubbins though.
