Just got back from my extended visit to Cambridge. It was a great weekend.

For those of us that have now seen and heard the F80, the teasers that Meridian have posted around are so obvious... the sound, well we have heard it all before...

As for high def. You have not seen nothing yet, and neither did we. Lets put it this way, it sounds like Meridian are way ahead of the game. As for HDMI, they aren't stupid. Sounds like Meridian are in it for the long haul. I think that when Meridian do deliver, everyone else is not going to know whats hit them.

Similar experience to us and the F80. Once again, Meridian make the hair on my neck stand on end.

As to keeping your Gxx or 8xx. I don't know the answer, but I guess it all depends if your in it for instant short lived gratification, or prepared to wait a little longer...
