Hi GP,

I have my C15 and 861v6+ID40 in the same room but not in the same location. The 861 is in a rack with all my other kit and the C15 is on a small table (not much larger than the C15 footprint) just to the left hand side of a two seater sofa. I have arranged the cabling on the C15 so that I can slide the table closer to the prime listing seat (right hand side of the sofa) as and when I choose to.

The SpeakerLink/Coax output of the C15 is not in use; like Bill, I'm not concerned about this. I have pondered about using the C15 output as second zone out to the kitchen for casual background music.

I think that in practise it would cost more for Meridian to make a C15 "Lite" due to shorter batch runs, different builds etc. than to build all the C15 to the same spec.

Personally, I prefer three tier architecture, namely:

-- Storage(s)
-- Control(s)
-- Source(s)

However, I see where Meridian are coming from with the C15 one unit that combines all 3 tiers but, and it's an important but, can be expanded to the above to suit ones requirements

Regards,
Carl
