With speakers of that quality and a processor of that capability, I would probably not change to Meridian for home theatre.

SQ-wise I suspect the processor and amplification is perhaps not quite up to Meridian's best but the extra HT facilities you have over a Meridian processor probably balance out that shortfall. I guess you could go for the latest Marantz processor if you wanted/needed Dolby Atmos, etc.

And the room layout you posted would I suspect be overwhelmed by the DSP5500-based system (I imagined your room was ~6m x ~7m) as would your neighbours shocked
I was thinking of Atmos, but its cool for real HT with projector etc.
My HT is in living dining room with only 77" oled TV.
So, to your mind, 5200 based system will be better for my flat?
