Meridian's acclaimed DSP-based loudspeakers are unparalleled in the industry. They
combine excellent acoustic and drive-unit technology, with multiple built-in power amps
and unique performance-enhancing DSP and digital conversion systems.
The Meridian DSP loudspeaker is the ultimate expression of our loudspeaker philosophy.
Active loudspeakers mean giving each driver its own amplifier in direct and close
control of all its parameters. DSP capability means crossover specifications that cannot
be matched by conventional designs and bass extension vastly superior to other
loudspeakers of the same volume. Keeping the signal in the digital domain until the last
moment means that there is an unbroken link between the recording studio or concert
hall and your listening room.
The new DSP5200 takes these principles to the highest ever level in a smaller
loudspeaker.
