Before we get into the specs of the DSP7200.2 speakers, we must rave a bit about the amazing company that produces them. Meridian Audio is not your average hi-fi company by any means. Since their inception, they have been at the vanguard of technology, a state of affairs that became apparent to the world at large when MLP or Meridian Lossless Packing was incorporated into the DVD-Audio format.
It is difficult to talk about high-quality sound in the home without mentioning Meridian Audio. The Britain-based company, with headquarters in Cambridgeshire, UK, was founded in 1977 by two music lovers. With almost 40 years of innovation in consumer home entertainment systems offering exceptional performance, they have developed the world’s first audiophile CD player, digital surround controller and digital loudspeaker; and the MLP included in Blu-ray Disc.
The concept of the Digital Active DSP Loudspeaker, originally introduced by Meridian over two decades ago, provides one of the most accurate and effective paths to high-quality sound reproduction.
The Meridian DSP7200.2 loudspeaker was released in 2015 with a series of technological improvements that deliver superior performance in many areas.
