I am interested to hear from people who had old DSP5200 and DSP7200 speakers who have uopdated the firmware to include the apodizing technology, just to isolate exactly what improvement this technology alone has brought and what peoples impressions of it have been. There have obviously been lots of rave reviews of the 808.2 and latest DSP7200 but I was just wondering how much of this is attributed to the apodizing and much is just all the other great audio engineering.

I have to confess to not being a Meridian owner (yet!) but after experiencing the 808.2 and DSP8000 demo at the Bristol show in February and having a play with the Sooloos kit I am thoroughly transfixed by their equipment and have been following this forum intently ever since! The GO8.2 is more in my price range though but without a local dealer to Cardiff I can't get an easy demo to try and separate me from my money!

Thanks
