Introduction
Processing
The Meridian 861 routes all signals – if necessary via
a 24-bit A/D converter – into the digital domain for
processing in the highly developed Meridian DSP cards.
The incoming signals are processed using a variety of
proprietary algorithms, and up to eight output signals
are generated. These output signals can be used to
feed a number of speaker layouts, ranging from two to
eight loudspeakers.
The on-board algorithms include Meridian’s own highly
transparent Dolby Pro Logic, PLII, Dolby Digital, MPEG
Surround, DTS, THX extensions, TV Logic, and a
variety of award-winning music programs including
Trifield and Ambisonic.
Outputs
The eight outputs can be provided as digital signals
to feed Meridian DSP Loudspeakers, or as variable
analogue outputs using a proprietary on-board 24-bit
resolution conversion method.
Room Correction
The Meridian 861 can be used in conjunction with the
Meridian Configuration Program to create a set of one
or more room correction profiles matched to your room.
A profile can then be selected to compensate for room
artefacts, including resonances and reflections, or for
imbalances between the speakers, to give a significant
improvement in the sound.
