Meridian has announced that its Oxford boutique will open on March 16 - and will apparently be operated by Lewis Building Technologies.

Have you Google Street Viewed the location?

Hardly Park Lane. What a complete dump. Whilst you're in demoing some 8Ks you can at least get your tyres swapped over (at ATS) or mail your Auntie an M80 at the DHL depot next door...

The 'Dreaming Spires of Oxford'? I think not.

Their whole behaviour at the moment is Gadaffi-esque. "My people they love me, they love me..."

It's not clear from the blurb whether the boutique is at Lewis Building Technologies' site, or elsewhere. FWIW LBT are in Pony Street, an address ripe with connotation for the connoisseur of rhyming slang.

They have a facebook presence here for those that do that sort of thing. (It seems to be the same address as the Lewis Building Technology one.)

They have 10 friends wink

But in all seriousness, I will be interested to check it out as it will be the closest M dealer to my folks. If I have to get all my gear to a dealer for firmware updates I would probably rather drive it there when visiting than post it somewhere...

Hello guys,

Just thought I better join as I didn't think it was fair what I had read.

I am from LBT and will be one of the salesman at Meridian Oxford. Before working here I spent 11 years as salesman and installer for Sevenoaks Oxford.

Right location, when you come and see us do you want to park? If yes then anyone who knows Oxford will realise it can't be in the centre.

There are loads of other reasons and yes the main one is cost but location for Oxford couldn't be easier also due to the fact a lot of our clients will be looking at more than just audio our LBT & CLFS offices are also there.

Our Facebook account figures, think about guys until Wednesday nobody knew about us so they aren't going to be that high.

Please guys just give us a chance we are a new business don't forget.

Gadget

PS You forgot to mention that we are dead opposite the Mini Factory one of Oxfords biggest attractions smile

I thought I would bring this conversation back as all the people who knocked our location went quiet grin

So far everyone who has visited has loved our location due to the fact you can park which in Oxford is rare.

Anyway for those who haven't our showroom here it is:

Due to the fact I am a car nut we have F1 open days this was the British GP

DSP8000s have now replaced the M80s
