Introduction

In choosing the 504 Stereo FM Tuner you have acquired a component that

combines major advances in audio and user interface design. The 504
Stereo FM Tuner uses dual-gate MOSFET RF amplifiers for high sensitivity,
together with a Walsh function stereo decoder for low distortion and extra
HF bandwidth. The eight-character display can be programmed to show
station names for ease of access, and all functions can be remotely
controlled from the Meridian System Remote.

This guide is designed to enable you to obtain the best possible results
from the unit, whether your requirements are simply to listen to music, or
to configure the unit to your preferences.

If you have just purchased the 504 Stereo FM Tuner, you should first turn
to the section Setting up the FM tuner, page 17, which explains how to
unpack and install the FM tuner correctly.

The Meridian 500 Series

The Meridian 500 Series is a unique system of digital, analogue,
and video components designed to meet the demand for
absolute quality, ease of use, and lasting value.

The flexibility of the Meridian 500 Series is such that you can
assemble a system as simple or as complex as you need,
perfectly suited to your musical and environmental requirements,
and with the ability to add to it or change it at a later date should
your requirements change. The 500 Series is also compatible
with the existing Meridian 200 Series and 600 Series
components.

Each Meridian 500 Series component is housed in a matching
slim line case. Front panel controls provide access to the most
important functions, and the full range of functions is available
from the Meridian System Remote using a simple and intuitive
control interface.

500 Series communications

The Meridian 500 Series includes a sophisticated
communications link, to ensure that any configuration of units
will work together as a fully integrated system.

The 500 Series communications system allows you to control
any combination of units using a single remote, and ensures that
your commands from the remote are interpreted unambiguously.
The communications system also allows you to extend your hi-fi
system into two or three rooms, with the ability to control the
sources in one room from the controller in another room.

Professional features

The 500 Series also includes features for professional users,
including RS232 computer control and balanced connections.

The following pages give examples of four suggested
configurations to illustrate the flexibility of the Meridian 500
Series.

To connect an antenna

A suitable VHF antenna or VHF cable signal must be connected
to the socket marked ‘RF input’ on the back of the tuner. You
are advised to use a high-quality, low-loss coaxial cable. Cables
which have a solid screen will give superior performance.

Please note that the antenna must be intended for unbalanced
(ie coaxial) connection. Antennas intended for, or connected
with ribbon cable are unsuitable. If your antenna uses a ribbon
cable then ask your dealer for a ‘balun’, or have it reconnected.
Ribbon cables are not acceptable proof against RF interference.

The 504 Stereo FM Tuner is a very sophisticated unit, which will
deliver superb quality sound. However, unless the signal
delivered to the antenna socket of the 504 is of sufficient
strength and quality, you will not enjoy the maximum benefits of
your new tuner. We cannot emphasise enough the importance
of a good VHF antenna and downlead.

However, as reception conditions vary so much, it is impossible
to give more than broad advice, and we recommend, therefore,
that you consult your dealer or antenna supplier who will be
familiar with local conditions and will be able to advise you on
the right equipment for your installation.

Setting up the FM tuner

19

To connect to a conventional
preamplifier

To connect to other Meridian 500

You should consult the manufacturer’s manual to determine
which input to use, but it will generally be labelled TUNER,
RADIO, or AUX.

You should either use a twin-screened audio cable, or a pair of
single-screened audio cables. These cables can have a
considerable effect on the quality of the sound, and you are
advised to seek your dealer’s advice on the best type of cables
for your system.
