Meridian Audio Pro 2 User Manual

The G Series rack mounting system is designed

to allow all G Series components to be installed

in a standard 19in rack. It also optionally allows

serial control and audio/video connections to the

component to be brought out to the front panel

for confi guration and for interfacing devices

such as camcorders.

A single mounting kit is supplied, with two

fascia panels, one for standard height products

and the other for the taller products such as the

G68 processor and G57 power amplifi er. With a

standard-sized product, the unit occupies 3 rack

units in height (5.25 in) while with a higher-pro-

fi le unit installed it occupies a 4U (7 in) space.

The sturdy matte-black-coated steel chassis is

specially designed to safely support even heavier

products such as power amplifi ers.

The chassis tray includes two ultra-quiet intake

fans, each 15mm thick and similar to those

used on Meridian’s fl agship 800 Reference

Series components. They are positioned directly

under corresponding vents on the base of the

components. The fans feature 12v DC operation

and are powered by the fan output jack on G

Series units likely to require them. The fans are

controlled by a thermal sensing circuit and are

only engaged when necessary.

Installation is designed to be simple and easy.

In the event that the front panel is to be used

for access to rear-panel connections, extension

cables (not supplied) are attached to internal

connectors in the tray to run to the component’s

line of high performance
