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.

I suspect that a �4000 pair of vibrators isn't quite the reaction that Meridian would have wished for. You wouldn't hear a lot if they didn't vibrate.
Sooloos, Roon, G series (with LPS upgrade), 800 series (with LPS upgrade), HD621, AC200, Prime and PS, DSPs old and new.
Purdeys, Moke, Leica, 'Blad. Only the best.

Just a few more hours and we will all know. 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. Jeff

The exploded view does remind me of an Airfix kit  Lack of SPDIF is truely stupid IMHO

Lack of S/PDIF 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! Chris
