Fanz, I hope you watched all that Bob stuart Video link as he explains why Proper Active speakers are Necessary to create acuracy that you appear want.
Meridian also build systems as a whole.

You have a "Mix Match" system (Nothing wrong with that), but you cant reliably critic what Meridian are about without a complete system to listen to, from Processor to Speakers.
If your comments are about Meridian components in a Mix Match system, then all are valid in that context.
You have to match Eggs with Eggs.

It seems DSP 8000's are Movie system speakers and 7200's are music system speakers by the way they are catagorised here.

As I see things, Cheers Chris smile
