Meridian
207-Pro, why separate boxes?
It is no
accident that the 207-Pro is arranged in two parts. One contains the
precision-engineered motrised CD transport system and the system power
supplies. The CD transport carries the single-beam laser pick-up assembly in a
sprung die-cast subchassis, and runs on precision stainless steel guides. The
assembly moves out at the touch of a switch on the front panel. This whole
mechanism is housed in a heavy aluminium tube and when the plate-glass door
slides shut against its soft surround, the spinning Compact Disc is
acoustically and mechanically isolated. This aspect of the construction adds a
lot to the sound quality of the player and yields the convenience of
front-loading without the loss of quality that normally results. The digital
signal is passed via a single cable to the electronics unit.
The 207
provides a unique conbination of quality and facility. The very highest
standards of audio performance are combined witha truly comprehensive control
system, resulting in a product which has received worldwide acclaim. Meridian
