No 18 in the Hall of fame I have simple tastes; I am content to settle for the best: GIK monster bass panels, rear wall. QNAP TVS 471i3. Roon into DSP5200SE via 210/ 218 zone... Explorer 2. Bluesound Pulse 2, Mini & Flex. 596v1, 518, Foxsat HD, Sony BDP, Pioneer 5090, 2 Chromecast's for LRB videos. MS200 to F80 for a Roon zone

If the product was out and the app wasn't available there would be moans and groans a plenty. Can't win....

It's more like a 'Direct IP' version of vMSR, without having to use a Global Cache box, for their next generation of products. It doesn't replace Core control, or have any Sooloos control, other than it will be able to select the AUX/SLS input and control the volume. Rick Audio Images, 284 Glossop Road, Sheffield, England.

Let's get the speculative engines roaring... what does this mean? Primary: MD600, MS200 (SpeakerLink to AES), Trinnov ST-2, Ayre V6-xe, Salk SS8 3x LRC. Secondary: MC600 (whole house). Zone one: 568.2, G57, MS200, Spatial Hologram M2SE. Zone 2-6 (Awaiting assignment).

Meridian will be releasing new products after the 218, all's not lost just yet! Cheers, Rick Audio Images, 284 Glossop Road, Sheffield, England.

Ratbert Unregistered	Hi Ian Absolutely, they could have done a lot worse than put it in a Prime sized and styled enclosure, USB powered, almost seems obvious. Russ

That would be perfect seeing I just bought a couple of Prime sized boxes...

I'm getting a bit bored with all this. Thanks for the heads up, Rick. Glad that Meridian have an app out that controls a NEW Meridian product that clearly will be of benefit a number of customers.
