Meridian Unplugged - Powered by MrTechGuy.co.uk Forums Discussion Meridian - Systems CES 2010 speculation thread

I will politely decline commenting because although many/most on this board are aware of the use of conduit, the skills of master electricians / home integrators to run wires there are -- believe it or not -- situations in which this is not possible with my situation, principally due to the construction and vintage of my home, making this not possible for a reasonable cost.

I will further politely decline to add that are considerations other than the simplistic aspect of running the cables / wiring. As examples:

-- The analogue speakers (which are to switched over to a full complement of Triad in-wall speakers and Triad in-wall subwoofers again due to room constraints) are to be installed in an custom designed baffled wall in the front of my room that i) sits behind and acoustically transparent screen and ii) was designed with input from Tony Grimani (of Dolby Labs fame) which means changing over to DSPs -- even were M to offer better in-wall DSPs (i.e. because the theater only has room for in-walls and I am no fan of M's DSP 420s as L/C?R speakers having listened to them extensively) would cost many thousands of dollars.

-- There is also the issue of equalization as the room is to be equalized using Ashly professional kit which in the hands of a professional is far more effective then what M offers. The point being that here that the use of M DSP speakers just i) adds costs and ii) offers no benefit.

In short, there is little point in adding generic comments such as yours without knowing all of the facts...also interesting that I am second long time that you responded to with generic and unsubstantiated comments over the last day with Ron being the other one...really, not helpful!


PS. To the mods, apologies for this response but V's high handed response warrented this polite response...feel free to delete this should you wish...
