Meridian just released a new in-wall/in-ceiling custom installation loudspeaker, model DSP320. The $2500 speaker is designed for in-ceiling use while also being slim enough for an in-wall set-up. It is designed to deliver similar tone qualities and compatible performance and it can also be easily integrated into systems that combine Meridian’s free-standing DSP loudspeakers with Meridian in-wall loudspeakers.
Like Meridian’s current DSP520, the DSP320 has been introduced specifically to deliver wide dispersion for maximum listening area, with minimum unwanted diffraction thanks to careful baffle and grille design. The on-board DSP provides thermal and dynamic bass protection with very accurate transients, ensuring that when the loudspeaker is played at high levels, even over prolonged periods of time, the loudspeakers always deliver a clean, detailed and accurate sound.
As with all Meridian Loudspeakers, the DSP320 is enabled with Meridian’s unique EBA technology (Enhanced Bass Alignment).
