Tony, do you have the problem with movies or music?
I certainly don't have any issues with music, and after great deliberation (with myself of course), I prefer the Meridian way where the sub 'disappears' into the overall image. You can certainly tell when the sub is off when the lack of bass extension becomes apparent.
The only other thing is I wonder if the processor could have made a difference - @JackFlash has a 818v2, and I have a 861v8.
Well I don't know if its a problem as such certainly until a possible firmware issue was mentioned I didn't consider it a problem. Merely a difficult to integrate, poorly documented piece of kit with a certain light touch characteristic.
I would have hoped that if it was a problem either Meridian or my dealer would have informed me. At least my dealer should be aware of what I have and so should Meridian given that I have registered everything I have with them several times on their website not that they seem to keep the information or do anything with it.
I haven't really been able to listen to it properly since the firmware upgrade as my 5200VC failed its update at the same time and is now nothing more than a paperweight.
Before the update I often had to place my hand on it to see if it was on for both movies and music.
Quite frankly I am extremely close to just chucking it all on eBay and let somebody else sort out all the problems for the advantage of getting it all extremely cheaply.
Cheers,
Tony.
