Introduction
The Meridian 500 Series
The Meridian 500 Series is a unique system of digital, analogue,
and video components designed to meet the demand for
absolute quality, ease of use, and lasting value.
The flexibility of the Meridian 500 Series is such that you can
assemble a system as simple or as complex as you need,
perfectly suited to your musical and environmental requirements,
and with the ability to add to it or change it at a later date should
your requirements change. The 500 Series is also compatible
with the existing Meridian 200 Series and 600 Series
components.
Each Meridian 500 Series component is housed in a matching
slim line case. Front panel controls provide access to the most
important functions, and the full range of functions is available
from the Meridian System Remote using a simple and intuitive
control interface.
500 Series communications
The Meridian 500 Series includes a sophisticated
communications link, to ensure that any configuration of units
will work together as a fully integrated system.
The 500 Series communications system allows you to control
any combination of units using a single handset, and ensures
that your commands from the handset are interpreted
unambiguously. Any unit can be designated as the controller for
the system, allowing you to position the other units out of range
from the handset beam if desired. It also allows all the units to
be switched off from the front panel of any unit in the system.
Professional features
The 500 Series also includes features for professional users,
including RS232 computer control (501, 562, and DSP5000), and
balanced outputs (563).
The following pages give examples of four suggested
configurations to illustrate the flexibility of the Meridian 500
Series.

can be decoded by the 563 Digital to Analogue converter to
provide a high-quality audio output for use with a conventional
audio preamplifier.
The 563 Digital to Analogue Converter can also decode digital
signals from other sources, including LaserDisc players and
Digital Audio Tape.

The 501V Control Unit is a full function preamplifier for use with
any analogue source, and includes video switching for complete
control of systems that include video sources such as a
LaserDisc player and video recorder.
