Well Guys its been a while since I posted, but would like to say Hi to All my friends on the Forum HI
I am currently pondering either changing all my speakers and going with DSP Meridian Speakers or staying with B&W and changing my HTM2D for a HTM1D.
The reason: I recently bought a Meridian 861V4 Processor and it just outperformed anything I have owned previously. so I am running a 808 CD meridian with a 861 meridian processor. I am so impressed with Meridian that I cannot help but wonder how their DSP Speakers work with their components. Meridian Owners rave about them.
The other side of the coin is that I am very happy with my 802D's run by McIntosh 501's using for the 1st time ever a Processor as a Preamp. You heard right, the Meridian 861 out performed my McIntosh C2200 as a Preamp and I sold it.
This is the thing. Meridian has a Proprietary Sound called "Trifield" where the Stereo comes thru the front 3 speakers and the Sub. It just sounds better than Stereo. I never went for SACD or DVDA but this is different, its not all around you its just in the Front.
This is why the second case scenario of an HTM1D as this fulfills and Completes the front 3 speakers upgrading the HTM2D to the 1D. That would be awesome. I wonder if my MC205 200 watt Amp would be enough for this speaker or would I have to reach in my pocket for an add'l 501.
Lastly my wife might kill me if she see's the size of an HTM1D come thru the door at 205 lbs.
Anyone compared the DSP speakers against B&W. If I ask at the Meridian forum you know what they will say. And If I ask here, I will get unbiased opinions ? Right ?? :rofl: :rofl: Just kidding
