The slim, compact enclosure looks beautiful from 360 degrees, while providing an open sound that can be enjoyed anywhere in the room. The M6 is the perfect loudspeaker for people whose love of music is an integral part of their lifestyle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSUPERBLY NATURAL SOUND\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA work of art in its own right, the beauty of the M6 is the fact that it is capable of delivering high-end audio performance. Leveraging decades of Meridian loudspeaker innovation, the M6 delivers sound equal to a passive loudspeaker of four times its size! The tapered column helps fill the room with superbly imaged, natural sound. A discreet light ‘halo’ – found nestling underneath the M6’s aluminium top-cap – subtly indicates whether the speaker is operating (white) or in standby (blue). The M6 is both a pleasure to look at and listen to.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"Meridian-M6-active-speaker\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0225\/9777\/files\/Meridian-M6-active-speaker-lifestyle.jpg?v=1635366775\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDESIGN\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.2;\" data-mce-style=\"line-height: 1.2;\"\u003eM6 was developed through Meridian's inspired approach to contemporary design, with all the features that make Meridian DSP Loudspeakers unique - combining superb sound with elegant design that's at home in any room.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.2;\" data-mce-style=\"line-height: 1.2;\"\u003eWith its compact, slimline appearance, M6 remains true to Meridian's founders' original design ethos: to create the best-sounding loudspeakers in a form that blends seamlessly into your home. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.2;\" data-mce-style=\"line-height: 1.2;\"\u003eA sculpture in its own right, M6 can be admired from any angle.

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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTRIPLE FIFO BUFFERING\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach sample of a digital recording must remain evenly spaced in time. Unfortunately, timing can vary, especially when reading discs. This is “jitter”, degrading music's sense of space and diminishing realism. Meridian's multiple “First In, First Out” buffering system minimises jitter, ensuring perfect timing and improved clarity. You enjoy a clearer feeling of the instruments and their interrelationship.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMERIDIAN HIGH RESOLUTION (MHR)\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMHR was the first approved encryption method for transferring high definition digital audio between components. Previously, it had to be in the analogue domain, reducing quality. MHR allows secure movement of high resolution digital audio within a Meridian system, without compromise, improving quality by reducing cyclic repetition.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMERIDIAN APODISING FILTER\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFilters 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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWIDE RANGE DRIVER\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLoudspeakers use crossovers to “divide” music into bands their drivers can reproduce. This introduces distortion, reducing sound quality – particularly on human voice recordings. Designing a single driver for both mid and high frequencies made a crossover within the vocal range unnecessary, avoiding distortion and reproducing more lifelike vocals at all volume levels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePERFORMANCE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.2;\" data-mce-style=\"line-height: 1.2;\"\u003eFrequency response in-room within 3dB from 38Hz to over 20kHz. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.2;\" data-mce-style=\"line-height: 1.2;\"\u003eOutput 106dB spl @ 1m on music material.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.2;\" data-mce-style=\"line-height: 1.2;\"\u003eNoise less than 15dB spl. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCONNECTIONS \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.2;\" data-mce-style=\"line-height: 1.2;\"\u003eMeridian SpeakerLink in and out (RJ45)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCONSTRUCTION\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.2;\" data-mce-style=\"line-height: 1.2;\"\u003e2-way bass reflex system\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDRIVERS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.2;\" data-mce-style=\"line-height: 1.2;\"\u003eBass: 1x 140mm aluminium cone\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.2;\" data-mce-style=\"line-height: 1.2;\"\u003eWide-range: 1x 85mm aluminium cone\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAMPLIFIERS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.2;\" data-mce-style=\"line-height: 1.2;\"\u003eBass: 150W Class D with feedback, bridge-tied load \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.2;\" data-mce-style=\"line-height: 1.2;\"\u003eWide-range: 100W super-linear low-feedback\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.2;\" data-mce-style=\"line-height: 1.2;\"\u003eOverall distortion typically \u0026lt;0.02% at any frequency or level.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePOWER\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.2;\" data-mce-style=\"line-height: 1.2;\"\u003e110 - 120 Volt 50\/60Hz\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.2;\" data-mce-style=\"line-height: 1.2;\"\u003e220 - 240 Volt 50\/60Hz\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMAX POWER CONSUMPTION\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.2;\" data-mce-style=\"line-height: 1.2;\"\u003e350 Watts\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDIMENSIONS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.2;\" data-mce-style=\"line-height: 1.2;\"\u003eHeight: 921mm on rubber Bumpons\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.2;\" data-mce-style=\"line-height: 1.2;\"\u003eDiameter: 300mm at base, 66mm (2.60in) at top\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWEIGHT\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.2;\" data-mce-style=\"line-height: 1.2;\"\u003e18kg\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Meridian","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39687194706002,"sku":"MERM6-SLW","price":10000.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0225\/9777\/products\/Meridian_M6_Front_59178a5d-4242-408a-afea-313aa4f848f3.jpg?v=1637358568","url":"https:\/\/soundline.co.nz\/en-int\/products\/meridian-m6-dsp-active-loudspeaker-wellington-only","provider":"Soundline Audio Online NZ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
