Meridian G57


The G57 is a high-power stereo amplifier delivering up to 200W per channel into 8Ω – or as much as a kilowatt in bridge mode.
Based on the amplifier design in our flagship DSP8000, it features a unique ultra-low feedback design for superb sound with minimal transient intermodulation distorion and THD, and a capacitor-free signal path for fast, accurate bass.
Internally balanced throughout, unbalanced and balanced inputs are provided and the unit features full thermal and DC protection plus remote trigger operation. Over-engineered power supplies ensure that the G57 delivers whenever called ujpon to do so.
