I guess it is weighing up how comfortable you are when considering the combination of the future of M coupled with the overall reliability of their products.

I can’t call the future, I guess looking at companies house information might give an insight. That said I do feel pretty comfortable with the reliability - I am running a pair of D6000s which are likely from the early 90s - plus as noted already there are options via this site of partners and indies who are likely to be able to fix.

My main speakers are from 1996, they have been serviced in 2018 and are still in production today. I totally understand the concern around future. ATC are on a very different course (family business for one thing) to Meridian but fingers crossed they will also be fine long term.

My biggest question would be, is the upgrade worth it, from my perspective and existing kit. I say this because I am contemplating a switch to Meridian in my main rig, for domestic harmony, rather than I want a new sound. But I am not doing anything until I’ve heard some modern DSPs (including the 7200!)
