Good Points: The Meridian 507 is a well built stylish looking player. It will make your music sound natural & deserves good supporting equipment to get the best out of it. When set up well can sound "turntable like".
Bad Points: Not cheap, the loading tray is a bit flimsy (the rest of the machine is well built) & needs high quality equipment to get the best out of it.
General comments: If you see one for a good price, get one!

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.

Bought this to replace my original 10 year old 506 CD player (I got £300 trade-in on the 506, not bad as I paid just £600 for it originally). The Meridian 507 sounds stunning, very clean and precise and works with every type of music I throw at it. Not a staggering improvement over the 506 but a healthy evolution (besides the 506 was a great player too).
It matches perfectly with my Meridian 551 integrated amp also and they make a great compact system.

While carrying the Meridian 507 home, I noticed how rather heavy it was given its size. When on the rack with my other components, it was the smallest in width and had the most different look.
The first time I played it, my wife was on the phone and therefore had to listen to it a low volume. Since this was not serious listening, I read a magazine. After a few seconds of play, I could not help hear the very fine details of Diana Krall's track. I put down my magazine and listened more int ...

i auditioned this Meridian 507 CD player against the cyrus cd7q & the naim cd5. The former lasted less than 5 minutes as it can't hold a candle to the meridian or the naim. it was a close call between these two but the meridian won the day. it's fantastic, clear & crisp sound with nowt taken out nor added in. Stereo imaging is superb as is the overall detail level. this is a sublime performer. if you can afford it, get one. you'll be glad you did.
