Meridian 500 Technical Data Sheet

Meridian introduce
the 500 Compact Disc
Transport that
combines major
advances in digital
audio and
engineering design
to provide clear, pure
and natural sound
500 Compact Disc Transport
The 500 Compact Disc Transport
incorporates a precision engineered
CD turntable and drawer system,
which provides all the advantages of
drawer loading with the superior disc
clamping normally associated with top
loading players. It provides a precision
digital output which is re-clocked and
uses a very high power 75 ohms
amplifier for superlow jitter.
In order to improve the sound quality
and disc playability Meridian has
updated the design of the 500 to use a
new three beam laser CD mechanism.
This involves a new type of in-house
software that, amongst its many
features, adapts the player to the
parameters of each CD.

The software is combined with radical
proprietary analogue processing system
that "de jitters" the data coming from
the disc before it is decoded.
The 500 is our best transport, ideal for
Meridian digital speakers or with the
565 Digital Surround Processor.
Combined with our 566 DAC, it's the
finest CD playback system Meridian of-
fers to get the sound of "being there".
