When and where will this happen? Would that not contradict your earlier posts

I'm simply adding together the various Shreds of Information on here from Audio High, Meridian themselves on this thread; Meridian's obscure Press Releases and New Data Sheets as well as a few comments from my own Dealer over the last week.

It seems to me that Meridian wanted to achieve any number of things with the new 861v6. It's likely then that they set themselves a List of Objectives and tried to achieve those Objectives using the Existing 861v4 Architecture and Cards.

After trying for a while, they discovered that they could not meet all their Goals, so they make a (not so light) decision to COMPLETELY Change the 861 Internals; Backplane, Cards and Power Supplies.

They did not take take this decision on a whim IMHO and in time, hopefully, tell us why they've made this decision

I just wish they were a LOT better at communicating this stuff to us
