I'd say that the ML surround processor would even put the Meridian 800 series to shame...but at an even MORE outrageous price.Personally, I think overspending on HT surround gear is misguided -- this isn't the place to spend in my opinion since soundtracks aren't (typically) going to be recorded such that it'll give the same type of experience as serious music listening. Mind you, I'm thinking about the typical soundtrack and I realize that there are a few out there that constitute exceptions.
I had been using Meridian 565/562v equip in one set-up (and Krell HTS in the other one) and had problems with it so I bought a Rotel 1066 cheapie surround processor. For my set-up, it provides just as much quality for HT use and had the flexibility of component inputs (the newer Meridian gear has component inputs).
Mind you, I think that units such as the ML or the Meridian are great if you are going to use the same processor for music listening and I wouldn't limit myself to the Rotel for strictly music playback (I use Lamm tube gear for this).
