Introduction
The Meridian 568.2 Digital Surround Processor combines a completely
digital surround-sound processor with a high-performance digital
preamplifier in a single integrated unit. It takes advantage of the latest
techniques in high-precision analogue electronics and digital signal
processing, and the result is an impressively realistic and exciting
reproduction of music and cinema sound.
The 568.2 Digital Surround Processor accepts both analogue and digital
sources, and supports all the current two-channel and multi-channel audio
formats including PCM, Dolby Digital (AC-3), DTS, and MPEG. It also
supports discrete multi-channel sources, allowing direct connection to
DVD-Audio players such as the Meridian 598.
For instructions on setting up the unit turn to Setting up the digital
surround processor, page 53. Once the digital surround processor has
been set up refer to Using the digital surround processor, page 13, for
information about getting the best results from all your music and film
recordings.
