The 808.3 can be connected directly to Meridian DSP
loudspeakers to create a complete compact stereo
system, with volume and other preamplifier controls
provided by the loudspeakers via the MSR+ or the front
panel.
The Meridian SpeakerLink connection provides both
two-channel digital audio and Meridian Comms control.
This is an alternative to the “home run” wiring
configuration shown overleaf.
Connect the upper SpeakerLink output from
the 808.3 to the SpeakerLink input on the DSP
loudspeaker chosen as the master, using a
SpeakerLink lead.
Connect the lower SpeakerLink output from the
808.3 to the SpeakerLink input on the other (slave)
DSP loudspeaker, using a second SpeakerLink lead.
Configure the loudspeakers as described in the
Meridian DSP Loudspeaker User Guide
