I attended Meridian Audio’s press event in its NYC office last Thursday, and came away impressed with the company’s DSP3200 Digital Active Loudspeaker ($6,000 per pair).

The small, stand-mounted speaker was shown with a Sooloos Control 15 music server; the complete system was just a pair of speakers and the server. The elegant Control 15 touch-screen interface can access your collection of CDs and digital audio files, at full lossless quality.

High-end audio systems can be a little intimidating to use and can dominate a room, but the lifestyle-friendly Meridian-Sooloos combination is just the opposite. It’s a music system, pure and simple.

Meridian has made internally powered speakers for as long as I can remember (eliminating the need for separate power amplifiers), and it was also the first to make powered speakers with digital inputs and employ Digital Signal Processing (DSP) technologies to enhance performance.

For example, the DSP3200 speaker features a digital crossover system and uses digital signal processing to provide surprisingly deep bass response and a full sound at low, late night listening levels. The processing can also help the speaker accommodate a wide range of room positions–on or in furniture, on floor stands or on wall brackets–while maintaining optimum performance.

The company is based in Cambridgeshire, U.K., where every Meridian Audio product is conceived, engineered, and built.

Are you in search of a good amplifier? then I would suggest you check out the JL car audio 500/1 amplifier. This amplifier is very efficient and will give little, if any, reason to worry. Here is something more about this product.

It is a class D amplifier. What does this mean? it means that it belongs to the class of highly efficient amplifiers that are up to 90% power efficient. This is a great advantage as it means your battery will not be easily run down. it makes the most efficient use of power when compared to other amplifier classes. And for your car, this is an invaluable feature.

This amplifier features a 12 inch polymer-coated subwoofer and a 12 inch polymer-coated passive radiator. These two are responsible for providing ample bass.

It has a minimum frequency response of 5HZ and a maximum of 0.5kHZ. This means that it will reproduce sound frequencies within this points.

It has protection circuitry which means you are protected from blowouts and short circuits.

It has an SN/R (Signal to noise ratio) of 95dB. This is the difference between the desired electronic signal and the background or self-noise of an audio system. The higher the SN/R, the better. So you can do a comparison with other amplifiers.

It has bass boost which means it can dramatically alter your bass levels to a preset value.

It has remote control. I guess this one doesn’t need any explanation.

OUTPUT POWER…it has preamp outputs which means you can pass through another amp (For whatever reasons you’ll want to do that — perhaps for a show or something or for some huge setup).

It has a peak power rating of 500 x 1. however, its power at 2 ohms is 250 watts x 1. an ohm is a unit electrical impedance. In simple terms it means that at 2 ohms, this amp can exert a maximum of 250 watts (that’s a lot for a car amp!).

It is tri-mode capable. This means that it supports an advanced method of connecting 2 amplifiers to one audio system.

It has a built-in crossover. This is an internal filter arrangement that breaks up a music signal into different frequency bands that can be sent to different speakers.

Now let’s score this amplifier…

Pros of JL car audio amplifier

* it is extremely powerful.

* it has an amazing bass boost and has more than 500 watts of power.

* This amplifier has appealing looks.

* Easy to use and install

Cons of JL car audio amplifier

* Requires careful tuning.

I rate this amplifier highly. This amplifier is totally durable and user-friendly. This amplifier is very sleek and gives high-level performance.

This would cost you $400 to $439. So if you’re looking for an efficient amplifier then you should certainly go for the JL 500/1 car audio amplifier (Unless you prefer something less expensive and maybe not as powerful).
