If you were to read through every post I have previously written you would not find any critisising the one hifi brand I have and will likely stay loyal to.

I am a little disappointed that owners are charged £500 plus fitting to replace a PS that's known to have issues. I am not suggesting the original PS was unfit for purpose but it definitely has problems from all the posts I have read about the subject on here. I also had a replacement on my G68 within a couple of years of it being purchased.

I wouldn't expect Meridian to sell at a loss but at £500 the mark up must be significant. G series customers are the future 8 series customers and likely like me to remain loyal to the brand. £300 to £350 inc fitting would seem a much fairer price and still likely generate a profit.

If the PS on my 861 were to fail I would happily pay £500 to have it fixed. I fear owners of the G series would be sorely tempted to spend the money on an alternative new processor and be lost as future Meridian customers.

Anyway back to listening to music on my brilliant sounding Meridian system.

Thanks
