Meridian Unplugged - Powered by MrTechGuy.co.uk Forums Discussion Meridian - Systems Introducing the Meridian Prime Headphone Amplifier

Hello Hitchhikers,

We are delighted to announce the introduction of the Meridian Prime Headphone Amplifier.

Building on Meridian�s 35 years of audio expertise, the Prime Headphone Amplifier is designed without compromise to deliver the highest quality analogue performance. Source switching and volume control are carried out next to the rear inputs for the shortest possible signal path and optimized discrete sockets enable the use of almost any kind of headphones, including separately-wired types.



The Prime Headphone Amplifier also features unique Analogue Spatial Processing to transform headphone listening from sounding �in your head� to an experience much more like listening to stereo loudspeakers.

The Prime Headphone Amplifier includes connections for a high-quality analogue source via the phono connectors and for your music player or other personal device via the 3.5mm stereo jack input. In addition, connect your computer or tablet via the USB input to enjoy digital music and online sources with exceptional fidelity.



Whether you choose to listen on headphones because using loudspeakers is not possible, or simply because you prefer to, Meridian�s new Prime Headphone Amplifier is the answer.

The Prime Headphone Amplifier is available from today so please contact your preferred Meridian Partner to have a listen, or simply buy it now from Meridian here.

VK Meridian Prime Review

I think the most curious part is the power supply.

Additional power outputs for 'other' Meridian equipment. What is that equipment?

I, for one, am intrigued...

The Prime PSU can work with:

- Meridian Prime Headphone Amplifier
- Audio Core 200
- Meridian Director DAC
- Media Source 200

Disappointed with the USB only digital input and the pricing - GBP2k with the PS -- wow !!!

There are lots of headphone amp/DACs out there at that price or less with the same facilities or more...

Well the only sensible answer to that is to listen to them all and buy the one with the inputs, sound and price you want.

�1200 with a power supply, �2000 if you want it with the enhanced power supply.

Russ

Yes, I saw that, but obviously best performance is with the Enhanced PSU, so the product performing at it's best is 2000 quid.

This is my Meridian Prime Headphone Amplifier Review.

Nice review Frank; thanks for posting the link. Interesting that so far it's 3/3 in favour of ASP mode i.
