Singular Performance
The Meridian G57 is our powerful Two Channel Power Amplifier. Suitable for a variety of applications the G57 includes both balanced XLR-3F analogue inputs and unbalanced phono inputs. The unbalanced inputs are converted to balance before they enter the amplifier itself, using Meridian’s proprietary ‘Super Balanced’ technology. The G57 combines power, clarity and flexibility for the ultimate in 2-channel amplifier performance at any volume level.
Key Features:
- 2 x 200W into 8ohms continuous amplification driving both channels. 2 channels at 200W into 8ohms, or 1 channels at >650W into 8ohms (bridge mode)
- 1-100kHz frequency response -/+ 2dB – Perfect for high resolution audio.
- Double skinned metal and glass construction
- RCA and XLR analogue inputs.
STEREO OR MONOBLOC
In normal mode, delivers 2 x 200 watts into 8 ohms continuously on both channels. In bridged mode, delivers 1 x >650 watts into 8 ohms or 1 x ~1000 watts into 4 ohms.
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 four pairs of high-powered output devices.
BUILT TO PERFORM AND TO LAST
The elegant aluminium, steel and glass case houses the two independent amplifier assemblies, each with its own massive internal heatsink. A huge toroidal transformer and four highly-specified reservoir 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
Both channels feature two pairs of binding-posts on their outputs to facilitate bi-wiring of loudspeakers with two sets of connection terminals.
