Anyone know what that sax track was that Bob demoed the F80 with? I hate not knowing what I am listening too.

I think its impressive that Meridian would trust the group with this kind of info. Ive been to some automotive things where the manufacturer will show the group something maybe a month or two before it hits the streets, before the dealers really know, on the condition that it is not disclosed to the world- if it is then such meetings dont happen in the future. I hope that in this case everyone's behaving and not telling us about this F80 product will allow Meridian to have everyone back again in the future. I can't wait to find out what it is.

This sounds like a brilliant day; I doubt there are many companies that provide such a great opportunities to their fans/customers. I'm so jealous!
If someone would PM me with details on the F80 and HDMI direction, I would much appreciate it: isb at peaker dot com.
Cheers, Ian

isb,
the only thing you'll need to know about the F80 is that you'll want one...at least one.
Re: HDMI, there is nothing to PM about it. They will do HDMI when HDMI is fixed. It currently isn't and they are right there on the inside to know that. Frustrating as it might be, I think that M are doing the right thing.
Rgds,
Nick

Re: HDMI, I think Bob did say that the metadata in the HDMI stream (which is critical for accurate audio decoding) is not yet finalized in the v1.3 spec.
