Inside the M80
At the core of the Meridian M80 is a high-integrity digital sound system, based on powerful digital signal processing (DSP) technology. This electronic heart is surrounded by a specifically designed enclosure in which each driver has its own compartment. Innovative low-resonance, high mass mineral-filled composite materials developed by Allen Boothroyd ensure that this cabinet offers excellent dynamic integrity - whatever the volume level, it does not resonate or interfere with the sound quality.
Inside, the left and right stereo drivers are special full-range designs - developed by Meridian and custom made for the company’s range of compact entertainment systems - with powerful neodymium magnets, die cast chassis, high-temperature voice-coils and carefully-designed cones fashioned from magnesium and aluminium alloy. The subwoofer is a special long-throw design with a unique long voice-coil that maximises output and linearity.
The circuitry driving this unique system employs the highest quality, 'audiophile' components chosen specifically for their contribution to the overall sound quality. The crossover - the system that feeds the left, right and bass loudspeakers with the correct sounds - is a special DSP design: a concept invented by Meridian. It sounds clear and full, at both high and low volume - whether the Meridian M80 is filling a room or sitting right next to you.
Active equalisation, coupled with Meridian's other powerful active techniques that deliver tight, full bass, ensure that the M80 always sounds its best at any volume level. Built-in location compensation controls adjust the performance if the M80 has been placed, for example, in a corner or on a shelf, ensuring it sounds its best in any room position. Sound controls include stereo widening and an innovative 'tilt' function that increases bass while decreasing treble, or vice-versa, so the sound is always correctly balanced.
On the rear panel are all the connections you'll need. For example, you'll enjoy the powerful on-board loudspeaker system, but there may be times when you want to connect a standard set of headphones for personal listening. Plugging the headphones in automatically mutes the loudspeakers - or not, if you prefer.
Digital optical input and output are also provided, along with three separate external analogue inputs. One is a mini-DIN connector that allows the connection of a standard iPod dock, while the others are standard 3.5mm stereo jack sockets that can be used to connect, for example, iTunes® via AirPort Express®, personal computers or a Meridian Sooloos Digital Media System.
