Sooloos Media Core 200







The award-winning Meridian Media Core 200 is a compact and elegant streaming solution that requires only your choice of controller to bring it to life. This compact system can store up to 2,000 CD albums at full lossless quality, and enables you to seamlessly integrate your collection.

STYLISH, COMPACT AND SILENT  


Extremely easy to connect and set up, it is also virtually silent in use. Simply choose which controller you wish to use – the free iPad or iPhone app, music streaming controller, or your computer. Featuring the full suite of Meridian’s world-leading audio enhancement DSP technology, it is a finely wrought blend of high-level engineering and sublime musical performance.  


DESIGNED FOR YOUR HOME  

Media Core 200 echoes the industrial design of Meridian’s streaming components, with a bead-blasted and anodized aluminium finish that cleverly hides the rear panel wire connections.

EASY TO SET UP, EASY TO USE  

The design of Media Core 200 is cleverly based around a vertical mounting that does not need a fan – employing only convection cooling – so it runs virtually silent. This means it can be placed anywhere, including within your listening area, without affecting your enjoyment of the music. All the complexity is kept strictly ‘under the bonnet,’ so setting it up is very simple, and is little more than ‘plug and play.’ Just add your choice of controller-iPad, iPhone, computer, or other Meridian controller, for a complete streaming solution.

On-board storage integrates automatically with other streaming libraries on the network

Provides a single audio zone, accessible via analogue, digital and SpeakerLink for connection to any sound system

Fully integrates with Meridian audio systems with centralised control
The Media Core 200 acts as a Core component, automatically locating and integrating itself with other streaming components and stored libraries found on the same network, ensuring full interoperability.  

The Media Core 200 provides a single audio zone. Audio output options include Meridian SpeakerLink, digital coax, and single-ended analogue. Once connected to a Meridian system via SpeakerLink, the Media Core 200 immediately assumes the role of a source for Meridian communication protocols, allowing full integration with the Meridian system for control as well as audio. A web browser can be used to configure analogue output connection to fixed or variable analogue for maximum flexibility.  

Meridian Apodising Filter

Filters are critical in digital audio. Commonly they introduce distortion and harshness because of "pre-ringing". Early digital recordings suffer from harshness too, due to primitive filters. After painstaking research, Meridian developed a special filter that avoids pre-ringing, so it can be steeper, cleaning up the effects of early filters. The result: a better, cleaner sound from recordings old and new.

SpeakerLink

Traditional audio systems often require large, expensive cables to maintain their performance. Meridian's SpeakerLink uses an “Ethernet style” cable that delivers pristine digital sound and control down a single cable between Meridian components. The result is simple, unobtrusive, and cost-effective cables that are easy to install.
