I take your point Ronnie, as Meridian would do power supply properly.
Even so, I still have heard talk of people upgradeing in 500 series.
A Faulty power supply sends many an 800 unit back to base, so maybe they dont want Sooloos having these return issues and all the costs involved 3 years down the line whan a new brick can be dispatched quickly if needed.
