Re: Surround sound features.

Thanks for your suggestions.

We have already allowed 17mm between the RCA plugs instead of the usual 14mm. It may not sound like much but is makes it much easier to wire up.

The unit will use analogue volume controls to maintain the highest signal to noise ratio possible and has an analogue bypass mode. I have also specified an analogue bypass with extra subwoofer information and an analogue bypass with subwoofer and surround channel informaiton. (i.e the DSP just creates the extra information and the stereo is bypassed straight to the outputs)

Sorry to say that there is just not enough room for two sets of 5.1 inputs although I can see that it may soon become a nice feature.

Not Sure that I can have independant Xover frequencies for each speaker with the DSP I am using however it is good idea and I will look into it.

High bandwith component paths have already been included.

If you have any more suggestions or grips about things I shouldn't do I would be very interested to hear them.

P.S Athough I don't work for Meridian any more, I was involved in the design of the remote you are talking about, all I can say in my defense is I was just following orders. I didn't think it made any sense either. ( I know its pitifull but I was just a junior engineer back then and my lot was just to lay out the PCB.)
