Multi-Channel
G55
The Meridian G55 is our powerful Five Channel Power Amplifier.
Suitable for a variety of applications the G55 also incorporates a unique bridging system for higher power and flexibility, providing optimum performance with any loudspeaker at any volume le
Finishes
The G55 is an award winning high resolution power amplifier. Derived from the same technology we use in our flagship DSP8000 this high power, ultra-low distortion, wide bandwidth power amplifier can comfortably drive any passive loudspeaker with control, fidelity and authority.
Features
Flexibility for surround-sound systems
In normal mode, delivers 5 x 100 watts into 8 ohms for use with five loudspeakers. In bridged mode, delivers 2 x >300 watts plus 1 x 100 watts into 8 ohms for driving the front three loudspeakers (left, right and centre). Capable of driving all channels simultaneously.
Power with finesse
Features a capacitor-free signal path for fast, accurate bass and a unique ultra-low-feedback design for superb overall sound. Each channel delivers its audio from five pairs of high-powered output devices.
Built to perform and to last
The elegant aluminium, steel and glass case houses five independent amplifier assemblies, each with its own massive internal heatsink. Two huge transformers and 68,000uF of smoothing capacitors ensure amazing instantaneous power is available whenever it is required.
Balanced design throughout
The signal path is balanced throughout - fed from either the XLR balanced inputs or from the "SuperBal" circuitry which converts unbalanced (single-ended) signals to balanced audio as soon as they enter the amplifier.
Electronically protected
Features full protection against thermal overload, DC on its inputs and short-circuits on its outputs.
Dual Binding-Posts
All channels feature two pairs of binding-posts on their output to facilitate bi-wiring of loudspeakers with two sets of connection terminals.
THE SCIENCE OF EMOTION
Meridian’s incredible innovations can transport the listener to the emotions of a live performance.
The award winning G-Series high-resolution power amplifiers integrate the same technology we used within the Special Edition range of loudspeakers. The G55 and G57 are high-power, ultra-low distortion, wide bandwidth power amplifiers that can comfortably drive any passive loudspeaker with control, fidelity and authority.
