Daniel J SaitA number of technology integrators joined Meridian Audio at Meridian Live recently for the exclusive launch of the company’s new Meridian DSP750 In-Wall Digital Active loudspeaker from the company’s Architectural range.
This special one-day event, hosted at the company’s Cambridgeshire HQ, gave attendees a unique insight into the science behind the DSP750 as well as the opportunity to experience its impressively powerful and versatile performance through a combination of presentations and demonstrations.
Meridian detailed the technical thinking, components and design engineering at the heart of the DSP750, then showcased the loudspeaker in action as a pure listening experience and as a rich, visceral soundstage for movie watching in its Reference Digital Theatre and smaller Media Room.
“We listened to the new DSP750 loudspeakers in very different set ups and I’ve got to say I was very impressed,” said Michael Robinson of Perfect Integration. “Meridian Live was a great opportunity to catch up with Meridian and to see and hear what’s new from the company. A very worthwhile day!”
“This was our first time to Meridian,” added Richard Widenbar of Finita. “To experience the DSP750 was really exciting. It was great to see how that fits within the Meridian range and how we could recommend it to our customers as a stereo solution, within a media room or as part of a home cinema. It’s been fantastic!”
The DSP750 is built to deliver the ultimate experience in audiophile, home cinema or media room environments.
