Meridian Unplugged - Powered by MrTechGuy.co.uk Forums Restaurant at the End of Universe Hitchhikers - Meridian Equipment Wanted: 518 and 563/6

Want to finish off my 500 series system and think the above are what I need.

Must be in good condition.

Not sure what the differences are between the 563 and 566 but would like a 24bit version.

The 566.24 would be the 24 bit version. The 565 has 18-bit DACs built in but will accept up to 22-bit input. You'd probably be better off running your Cryus Discmaster 8 into a 518 setting the 518 output to 22-bit. On the other hand, with what you'd pay for a 566.24 or a 518, you could sell your 565 and buy a 568 with 24 bit DACs.

Were are you located? I have a 518 that I'm planning on selling.

London.

I got my 565 back from Meridian this week and I swear I saw 24 bit as supported input when I was setting it up.

Is there any real difference between the 563 and 566?

The 565 with the Z3 update supports 24 bit

If you do want to go the 518 route, I've still got one available (in the UK) that was previously listed in the Restaurant here:

Trawling back through the Restaurant, it looks like there were a few more listed that may not have sold.

Thanks Simon are you open to offers, a bit too rich for me.
