Having bought the likes of Garrard, Celestion, Sansui, Sony, JVC and Technics equipment throughout the 1970's and 1980's I wanted to buy something of quality and longevity - and was prepared to pay a premium to obtain it.
I had initially looked at AudioLab and then Linn. I was on the verge of buying into Linn when I experienced appalling customer service at my local Linn dealership when auditioning equipment.
I stumbled upon an alternative dealership that sold Meridian (an audio company I hadn't previously heard of). Not only did the 500 series sound great, but it looked the part too. What is more, I was taken aback by how trustworthly the dealer was in freely loaning all manner of kit for home auditioning. I purchased all of my Meridian equipment from them until they parted company with Meridian.
Furthermore, when my six-year-old 506.16 developed problems that Meridian couldn't completely cure they exchanged it for a brand-new 506.20. I vowed at that point that if there was a Meridian solution for a product I wanted then I wouldn't buy from anyone else.
