YOU CANNOT BUY THIS LEVEL OF DETAIL FOR LESS. Great starter system or upgrade to an existing entry level system. The 818 can be set to fixed output if used as a source.
This offering is a complete, Hi-Resolution music DAC with digital Pre-Amp. The Meridian 818 DAC is an amazingly detailed, articulate and revealing pre-amp which has been in my system for 4 years. All items offered were housed in a proper cabinet that is well ventilated and not over-crowded. With on-board single-ended and balanced pre-out’s, you can easily add sub’s or a crossover if utilizing an analog amp and speakers. A range of both analog and digital inputs & outputs complete this versatile power house. Use the Meridian 818 as a killer Roon end point!
