I've made my views on the MQA firmware situation clear, and won't repeat them.
I thought I'd share with you the flipside.
I delivered my new (to me) 861v4 to a PP to have the new LPS option fitted.
A couple of days later the PP rang to tell me that M had opened the machine up and realised that a repair carried out by a (different) PP was faulty.
As a result the unit has been upgraded to LPS and due to the initial faulty repair the cost to me has been reduced to effectively the postage to M and back.
Amazing service, thank you M. Now the 861 is back my G68SL which it replaces will definitely be coming to you for its LPS upgrade shortly.
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.

Well done Meridian, I don't think you can ask for better than that, customer support at it's best.

Thats the kind of service that keeps people invested in their brand. I have had great service out of Atlanta for the past 17yrs. They replaced a bad comms board for me in a DSP33 for free when it was out of warranty. I hope they never lose that edge.

Good to hear.
I've had both very swift & cheap repairs and pretty slow and expensive ones from Meridian. Thankfully, for me at least, repairs of any kind are incredibly rare. I think I've needed to send stuff away 3 times in 17 years of ownership, and that's with me giving the stuff a thorough workout.
Long may it continue.
