Duncan,
No I think it is digital audio out only.

Nick,
It certainly would make it more flexible to have SPDIF inputs on it as well for connection to legacy Meridian systems I do agree. But given that they don't have a display or means of control then you couldn't use them to connect directly to a PC or existing CD player anyway.

However in the context of a current Meridian system they are likely to be used:

A: In a home cinema setup, with current processors, speakerlink is all that is needed.

B: With the AC200, to give multiple inputs and a means of control, so speakerlink is all that is needed.

C: As a Sooloos Zone, with Control 15 or MS600, so speakerlink is all that is needed.

And the AC12 is always available for legacy systems.
