I am quite happy with my dealer. He uses Meridian him self.
Not that i can see new items there, as he is more in the custom install bussiness and does not have a large shop with a lot of Meridian gear on display.
But our coutry distributor has great support. They handled my 8xx upgrades (via the dealer) and that went well OK. They came to my home for the v3-v4 upgrade.

The difficult questions are mostly answered by Merdian UK.
