Hello all,

I'm also a newbie (at least with respect to Meridian products) and I'm also looking to upgrade my 2 channel system.

I've been looking at DSP5200s. My first question is whether there is any sonic difference (or any other significant difference) between the older DSP5200s and the newer ones with the SpeakerLink connector.

My second question is whether DSP5200s come with a remote control. From downloading the Meridian manual, it appears the answer is no. Does this mean I have to buy a Meridian system remote?

I saw somewhere that there is an iPad app that might control them. Is this an adequate solution?

Thanks all!
