The meridian sound is 'liquidy'.
Thanks again - I thought the 7-series centre was huge in comparison but I guess not, although it is relatively huge in price !

And am still not convinced about the terminology you're using in reference to what I heard - I would say after this initial session that Meridian & TMA were pretty much identical in terms of "sound signature" : neutral. I've never understood for example what people mean about NAIM's "pace / timing" etc, but as I'm not going there, let's not get sidetracked !
