Trinnov on the other hand always promote their Altitude as an ongoing work in progress at war with obsolescence in order to reward customer investment . The very first Altitude 32 is still used in the lab to test any new software and has regularly won awards for best in class for basically the same machine from 2014… How ironic, that Meridian is the UK distributor for Trinnov.

People are already doing the recapping as it is a matter of replacing with a similar part. Upgrading a 18 bit speaker to 24/96 is an entirely different process. To do such, you need a donor speaker and the DSP boards need to be swapped out which requires a good bit of soldering and fitting of mounting points for the cover. While the DSP6000, 7000, and 5500 electronics are very similar, there are some distinct differences and you cannot simply take a back panel off a 5500 and put it on a 6000.

Meridian make high-end quality products that Alan wanted to last. It's not like a "sell new chips in a new box every year" Apple con, with it's obsolescence by design. I don't even think its a fair comparison.
Meridian should either support their product base (unlikely since the founders have departed to audioheaven) or make public domain. Companies that don't support their client base, don't survive for long. And given the price-point of their products, will once its lost customer loyalty, cease to stay viable because of it.
I think most of us on this forum would be lost without the like of Duncan and MrTecGuy's support info.

…the founders have departed to audioheaven. Bob Stuart is still very much alive and well.

Hi
Can I confirm there is no way of making Prime Headphone Amplifier work with Windows 11?
