The player utilises 192 kHz, 24-bit digital to
analogue converters for the very highest ana-
logue quality, while the internal circuitry includes
a superb analogue design to complement the
high-spec DACs and delivering 2V rms with less
than -“95dB noise and distortion.
The result is dramatically improved stereo imag-
ing, and a clear, open and authoritative sound.
Both S/PDIF coaxial and TOSLink optical digital
outputs are provided, and all audio cable inter-
faces are via gold-plated connectors.
An RS232 serial port is provided for remote con-
trol operation. This port can be used to update
the G07s system software, thanks to Flash ROM
storage.
The G07 is supplied with the Meridian System
Remote Plus backlit remote control. This control-
ler not only operates all remotable Meridian
products; it can also be used to control the vast
majority of components from other manufactur-
ers, thanks to its built-in product library that
includes literally hundreds of manufacturers.
And if a product is not in the database, it can be
added via the remotes learning function.
The G07 is an ideal player for many applications,
such as an integrated analogue stereo system
(see diagram above) comprising the G07 CD
player and the G51 receiver, while the G07s
coaxial digital outputs will drive Meridian DSP
loudspeakers directly to form a superb quality
all-digital stereo CD replay system.
