(Take this with a small grain of salt)
Meridian does the processing in software, so in theory the quality should be the same. However, since they have changed processor boards they may not still update FW for all four major versions (major is first number, 1/2/3/4). So an older version may be stuck with an older version of the algorithms, as the new sazzy configuration program only works on version 4.2 and up. The second number is a minor version, usually no big hardware changes. So the 861 can be version 2.5, 4.2...
They are pretty bad at updating their web site, so version 2.5 was probably the current version when they designed that web page. Then they added "In the latest Version 3 we have also added high resolution multichannel digital and analogue input options." with a link to version 3: http://www.meridian-audio.com/p_800_861V3.htm - a page for version 4 may come any year. |
