Digital connections
The following table gives details of the digital audio connections:
To connect to this
A digital source, such as a digital sound processor,
digital preamplifier, CD player, or DVD player.
A second (slave) DSP loudspeaker, using an S5 lead.
The digital connections should be made with high-quality 75 screened
cable. Suitable cables are available from Meridian. We do not recommend
using audio cables, which do not have adequate shielding or the correct
impedance, or cables intended for UHF applications, as these do not
provide adequate shielding in the 1–30MHz region.
Communications connections
The following table gives details of the communications connections:
To connect to this
The COMMS connection on a Meridian control unit or
preamplifier.
The COMMS INPUT on a second DSP loudspeaker.
The serial port of a PC, to control the DSP loudspeaker using a
computer. For more information see the Meridian Web site,
