Seriously, if you can get these with different coloured speaker cloth, I can see them working; but I agree, I think they may have to grow on me.

Edit: I loved the Gherkin as soon as I saw it. Quite astonishing how Norman Foster @ Co. keep the bar so high.

You wouldn't hear a lot if they didn't vibrate.

What exactly might we find out that we don't already know? If you mean additional pics of the 2 hardware pieces and additional details (and possibly store release) of the Sooloos app, then yes, I agree. Otherwise, I think we already know what's coming.

Nope. SpeakerLink in and out.

Edit: Sorry, but I hate rubbish statements like this:
Quote
Cylindrical acoustic radiation pattern means that the apparent sound level does not significantly vary with distance from the loudspeaker, for extremely even distribution of sound throughout the room.
Such behaviour would defy physics. A cylindrical radiation pattern (1/r^2) will drop off less than a spherical radiation pattern (1/r^3).

Lack of SPDIF is truely stupid IMHO

Means you have to add a minimum �1500 for an AC200 to any pair of recent Meridian speakers. To do it the proper Meridian way, that is.

Exactly. Why exclude the armies of Squeezebox and Sonos owners etc. who might have considered these in a simple stereo set up.

Well the down-firing woofer should give those who worry about vibrations in the electronics something to think about as it looks like the electrics are directly in the firing line.

I'm also impressed by the need for the 'halo' to indicate if the speaker is operating or in standby. It'll be great feature for the deaf! wink
