Meridian’s G Series line of high performance  
Although Meridian is today best-known for its  
digital circuitry, it is a company built on ana-  
logue roots, and indeed, superb analogue circuit  
design and implementation are important parts  
of all Meridian products.  
digital & analogue consumer audio components  
feature a stylish cabinet design in traditional  
black or a sleek silver finish.  
Designed to be either free-standing or rack-  
mounted, G Series components build on their  
predecessors, the multi-award-winning 500 and  
our flagship 800 Series, and include entirely new  
circuitry developed specifically for the G Series.  
The G Series power amplifiers offer the ideal  
way to interface G Series components to third-  
party passive loudspeakers. They include the  
latest power amp developments from Merid-  
ian, utilised in their flagship DSP8000 digital  
loudspeaker systems, and share many common  
design parameters.  
Multi-layer boards reduce system noise and  
improve performance. In products which include  
video capabilities, broadcast-quality, wide-  
bandwidth video components are employed for  
maximum image integrity.  
In all cases, pairs of channels can be bridged for  
additional output and flexibility, and the amplifi-  
ers in the range are gain-matched to further add  
to the possibilities when building a system.  
The Meridian G55 is a five-channel unit, and  
delivers a solid 100W continuous mean power  
per channel into 8Ω  
G Series units are easy to use. Where appropri-  
ate, a knob is included to control volume. The  
positive-action front-panel keys are software-  
defined: their legends are presented in the  
vacuum fluorescent display and change  
intelligently according to context.  
Special attention has been paid to ensuring  
that the amplifiers can deliver the power thats  
required at any given moment. Massive twin  
low-noise toroidal power transformers provide  
power to no less than 25 selected pairs of  
output devices, carefully temperature-con-  
trolled for optimum operating characteristics  
and efficiency. The result is a clear, open sound  
with detail as well as punch where its required  
– at any volume level from a string quartet at  
midnight to Metallica at high noon.  
Full installation configuration of many G Series  
components is achieved by running a special  
setup program on a Windows computer,  
connected to the G Series unit via a serial link,  
or direct from the front panel.  
G Series products also include serial ports for  
remote operation and configuration, along with  
infra-red sensor input and trigger capabilities,  
plus Meridian communications ports. A compre-  
hensive back-lit learning/programmable remote  
is included with products other than amplifiers.  
The amplifier modules feature a symmetrical  
design with fully electronically-balanced inputs.
