Meridian’s G Series line of high performance
Although Meridian is today best-known for its
superb-sounding digital theatre systems, it is a
company built on analogue foundations, and
indeed, superb analogue circuit design and
implementation are important parts of all Merid-
ian products.
digital & analogue consumer audio components
feature a stylish cabinet design in traditional
black or a sleek silver finish.
Designed to be either free-standing or rack-
mounted, G Series components build on their
predecessors, the multi-award-winning 500 and
our flagship 800 Series, and include entirely new
circuitry developed specifically for the G Series.
The G Series power amplifiers offer the ideal
way to interface G Series components to passive
loudspeakers from other manufacturers. They
include the latest power amp developments
from Meridian, utilised in their flagship DSP8000
digital loudspeaker systems, and share many
common design parameters.
Multi-layer boards reduce system noise and
improve performance. In products which include
video capabilities, broadcast-quality, wide-
bandwidth video components are employed for
maximum image integrity.
In the case of the complete line of G Series
amplifiers, pairs of channels can be bridged for
additional output and flexibility, and the ampli-
fiers are gain-matched to further add to the
possibilities when building a system.
G Series units are easy to use. Where appropri-
ate, a knob is included to control volume. The
positive-action front-panel keys are software-
defined: their legends are presented in the
vacuum fluorescent display and change
intelligently according to context.
The Meridian G56 is a compact, 2-channel unit
with dual-mono construction, delivering a solid
100W continuous mean power per channel
into 8Ω and suitable for even the most difficult
loads.
Full installation configuration of many G Series
components is achieved by running a special
setup program on a Windows computer,
connected to the G Series unit via a serial link,
or direct from the front panel.
The amplifier modules feature a symmetrical
design with fully electronically-balanced inputs.
Both balanced and unbalanced inputs are
provided, but in fact the unbalanced inputs are
converted to balanced before they enter the
amplifier itself.
G Series products also include serial ports for
remote operation and configuration, along with
infra-red sensor input and trigger capabilities,
plus Meridian communications ports. A compre-
hensive back-lit learning/programmable remote
is included with products other than amplifiers.
The discrete active input components are ther-
mally and electrically matched in pairs, and the
