Meridian G68XXV Processor

((( JUST REDUCED FOR A FAST SALE )))

Like new will all XLR / Balanced analog outputs and Meridian Digital outs for Meridian Digital Active Speakers.

Top G-Series Black processor with the preferred ALL ANALOG XLR / Balanced outputs and full featured.

This is a fantastic sounding full featured Surround processor, pre amplifier , AM/FM tuner and DAC.

All versions of the G68 include two 6-channel S/PDIF digital inputs (coax), five stereo Toslink optical inputs, and six more stereo coax digital inputs. In addition, there’s a 6-channel analogue input, and five stereo analogue ins. All the inputs are reconfigurable for an incredible degree of flexibility, and analogue inputs are converted to digital at high resolution – 24-bit, 96kHz.

The G68 is not only an audio processor – the video versions make it a superb video switcher too, with broadcast-quality switching and signal handling for the highest quality picture you’ve ever seen. There are four S-video inputs and two outputs; four composite inputs and two outputs; and three component inputs with one output.

The G68 combines controller and surround processor functions, meeting the latest THX Ultra 2 specifications and including MPEG, DTS, Dolby, Trifield and Ambisonic decoding, to name just a few. The decoders consist exclusively of our own code, giving them superior integration with the Meridian design philosophy, as well as superior performance.

The G68’s ‘Smart Source’ feature continually monitors the digital inputs and automatically loads the correct decoding software for the format, speaker layout and encoding of the incoming signal.In addition, built-in Meridian Room Correction uses powerful DSP to measure your room and build custom digital filters to smooth out room reverberation, cleaning up the sound and improving localization, imaging and surround immersion.
