I have been away again and missed much of the exciting discussion live. However, the latest complaints do not seem to me to be very fair minded in the light of Meridian's detailed replies. I am very impressed indeed with the quality and depth of Bob's answers given the framework of commercial confidentiality that he so eloquently explained.

Before CEDIA I posted under "Keep the faith" about the quality that Meridian have given us and the problems of HDMI. I do not want to appear smug but I feel Meridian have vindicated my viewpoint. My main concern was over communication. Not only do they promise better communication in the future but Bob has clearly invested a lot of time and effort into answering our questions. Like many here I offer my thanks (and also to John for Herculean and unpaid efforts).

I think Meridian has now done (or promised) everything we could reasonably expect. To continue griping is self-indulgence.

I forgot to add that for anyone wanting great two channel sound they should try the 808.2i before moving to Ayre or elsewhere. This combines outstanding CD replay with flexible inputs of other sources such as iPod docks.
