Was just being hopeful I guess.
Just to clarify, the answer to your question was Yes.
The options are:
A: older 5200 -> trade in to all-new 5200SE (original, with clamp rings)
B: newer 5200 -> your 5200s upgraded (without clamp rings)
C: newer 5200 -> trade in to all-new 5200SE (original, with clamp rings)
A was always possible but now Meridian has organised a special deal. The financial details are probably still incumbent on the precise condition of your 5200s.
B has a list price which may or may not be subject to discount
C was also always possible, and is a matter of negotiation with your dealer (the new SE speakers obviously have a list price, but there is the issue of trade-in price (age, condition) and any possible discount).
Note: while the cost difference between trade-in and upgrade for later 5200s is likely to be relatively small, the difference for bigger speakers will be commensurately bigger, so it's certainly good that there's an upgrade option, and they didn't force everyone into a trade-in!
