You've invested in some of the best Meridian has to offer and your opinions are valuable here but keep it civilized OK?

Sorry, but George is out of place here. First by dissecting the equipment I own and making irrelevant comments about their websites etc. This has nothing to do with the equipment or their performance. Then by trying to tell me how there must be something wrong with my 861 or I set it up wrong in order for me to be happier with the ADA piece rather than Meridian. Of course it would be impossible for something other than a Meridian to sound better TO ME. That is called no holds barred I stick with my brand no matter what. Relax guys, its s freakin piece of equipment. It's not your wife.

Think about my original post in its most simple form. I owned both pieces, took the 30 day test drive on the ADA and preferred it. I preferred it so much that I am willing to take a huge financial loss.

You guys aren't even willing to take the 30 days trial and get your money back if you're not happy. That makes you Fanboys or just afraid what you may find out after you tried the ADA.

I know I got heated, but for someone to tell me that my opinion on what I heard in my HT is wrong defies logic. To then also say that IF what I did hear was better, then it's because the Meridian must be broken is just plain bizarre.
