What I find fascinating is that, on a Meridian enthusist forum, 50% of respondents to the poll are no longer using CD players for primary listening. There's the rub. To me Meridian is about processors and speakers. It's unlikely I will ever buy a Meridian source component again when my �199 Apple TV, �150 iPod touch and �299 Sony Blu-ray deliver the goods. This is coincidentally an opinion voiced by my local (non-Meridian) dealer - sources are increasingly PC-based and the money is spent on the other components in the system.
