I hope you're both right.

I just worry that while all the other brands have realised what many customers now want product wise and are already offering them, just look at Linn and Naim as examples, Meridian just are not offering that.

I'm taking a gamble that they have something in the pipeline. I had all my kit up for sale earlier in the week, seems I have been waiting a good 2 years for something to be offered that ties up multiroom at an affordable price point.

I hear what you are saying about the new DAC and 857, but seriously, how many people can stick that in their sitting room? It is £21,000 for the pair, and you will need to stick at least £3000 worth of speakers on it to do it proper justice, more like £8k on speakers and sub.

As I said earlier, AC218 at £1200 is what we need, AC200 with 218 built in.

Even offering the 218 as a G18 in a G series case that doesn't look it has come from the screwfix direct school of design and charge £999 for it would be nice. laugh


No Darling, I've had it months!
