Meridian Unplugged - Powered by MrTechGuy.co.uk Forums Discussion Meridian - Systems Is the 861 a dead end?

The 271 just gives a means for non Meridian equipment to deliver audio to M DSP SpeakerLink speakers. A sensible move by M, that will allow users who appreciate the design of M speakers, to buy partly into the M ecosystem.

For somone like myself who purchased a brand new 861 only 3 years ago and has been waiting patiently since then to open the doors into Atmos etc, at least I now have, with a 271 purchase, the possibility to move forwards again.

However, what I don’t particularly want to do is spend yet another £13K+ to get me there,

Basically my 861 investment has turned out to be a poor investment, even although I have enjoyed the audio quality.
