Yes, I agree with the need for more substance. Should we not have had some details from Cedia by now? I was looking for some myself. Just spotted this video from CEDIA showing the new amp's insides. Soundserge

To answer/clarify a few points... - Meridian had a large range of other passive loudspeakers, ready for use in their demonstration rooms. - Speak to your local dealer re.visit. - No height speakers. - The new range of 'passive' products from Meridian open up the doors to people who don't want DSPs. The Ultra for example - a brilliant product offered to clients who wish to upgrade from 818's in a passive system. (And gives other products, dCS, Wadia & Krell a good run for their money. - Ooooh....8000 Ultras - now there will be an interesting product...! - "Tackier Room"?  - Salesman selling - heaven forbid!

Thanks for posting and doing Meridian's job for them. It is a pity that all the Cedia clips are so short of information.

- "Tackier Room"? Well it certainly looks like it from your photo. The plasterboard joins seem highly visible and what has happened to the skirting board? Perhaps the photo gives a misleading impression.

Skirting - unsure TBH. Not really something my ear was attracted too.
The walls were treated - then covered in a 2 parts cloth - hence why you can see a line through the middle.

I would also be interested to learn what music you played that so impressed you. Other choices were from Sonos Faber. Music wise, I played artists/tracks I knew well: Lucinda Williams - Born to be loved, Allan Taylor - Kerouacs Dream, Jose James - Do you feel, Public Service Broadcasting - Go!
