Secrets of Home theatre

Meridian Prime Power Supply can be used to power a range of Meridian products, including theMeridian Prime Headphone Amplifier or Audio Core 200. The addition of Prime Power Supply to these components provides a significant enhancement in their performance – it’s like supercharging your car’s engine.

Hand-assembled true toroidal transformer with high-mass, flat and low-magnetic field design. Linear power supply design inspired by the latest 800 reference series.

The construction of the double-walled, bead-blasted metal housing is similar to that of the full-size Meridian components. This ensures that noise is kept away from critical audio components to preserve lifelike details that are crucial for headphone listening.

The Meridian Prime power supply can be used to power a range of Meridian products, increasing their performance.

By routing USB first though the Prime Power Supply, it also reduces any possible noise in the USB signal running from a computer. I did hear less noise at high volume levels with the Prime Power Supply. I say, if money is no object, then go ahead and purchase the full bundle.
