Although Meridian is today best-known for its
superb-sounding digital theatre systems, it is a
company built on analogue foundations, and
indeed, superb analogue circuit design and
implementation are important parts of all Merid-
ian products.
The G Series power ampliers offer the ideal
way to interface G Series components to passive
loudspeakers from other manufacturers. They
include the latest power amp developments
from Meridian, utilised in their agship DSP8000
digital loudspeaker systems, and share many
common design parameters.
In the case of the complete line of G Series
ampliers, pairs of channels can be bridged for
additional output and exibility, and the ampli-
ers are gain-matched to further add to the
possibilities when building a system.
The Meridian G56 is a compact, 2-channel unit
with dual-mono construction, delivering a solid
100W continuous mean power per channel
into 8Ω and suitable for even the most difcult
loads.
The amplier modules feature a symmetrical
design with fully electronically-balanced inputs.
Both balanced and unbalanced inputs are
provided, but in fact the unbalanced inputs are
converted to balanced before they enter the
amplier itself.
The discrete active input components are ther-
mally and electrically matched in pairs, and the

G56 2-Channel Power Amplier
Meridian’s G Series line of high performance
digital & analogue consumer audio components
feature a stylish cabinet design in traditional
black or a sleek silver nish.
Designed to be either free-standing or rack-
mounted, G Series components build on their
predecessors, the multi-award-winning 500 and
our agship 800 Series, and include entirely new
circuitry developed specically for the G Series.
Multi-layer boards reduce system noise and
improve performance. In products which include
video capabilities, broadcast-quality, wide-
bandwidth video components are employed for
maximum image integrity.
G Series units are easy to use. Where appropri-
ate, a knob is included to control volume. The
positive-action front-panel keys are software-
dened: their legends are presented in the
vacuum uorescent display and change
intelligently according to context.
Full installation conguration of many G Series
components is achieved by running a special
setup program on a Windows computer,
connected to the G Series unit via a serial link,
or direct from the front panel.
G Series products also include serial ports for
remote operation and conguration, along with
infra-red sensor input and trigger capabilities,
plus Meridian communications ports. A compre-
hensive back-lit learning/programmable remote
is included with products other than ampliers.
