Good Points

Very detailed, fine stage.


Bad Points

Too transparent, very bright sound, almost harsh. Vocal with too much s..ssibilance.


General Comments

First hearing is a joy, highly detailed, fine controled bass. After a while, the flaws of the Meridian 507 emerge. Much too bright, very sibilant, almost unlistenable with certain recordings.

    Must be listening to the machine through incompatible cables,amp or speakers.
    Mine is a joy. Although fairly ruthless with bad recordings.
    Ever heard of the phrase "Plays whats on the disc"
    Maybe this reviewer should see that as a strength!!!

    This reviewer has obviously not realised that what a player is designed to do ,is play what's on the disc.
    I have a Meridian 507 and I agree that with certain recordings, it is ruthless.
    However that is a failing of the recording NOT the player.
    Maybe he should try a more coloured machine.
