Save for DPLII and EZ, which is their implentation of 6.1 with 7.1 speakers. But you don't need that if you have a 7.1 setup on the 565.
So if you want to listen to how the Meridian sound, maybe your nearby Meridian dealer has it set up for people to demo. Either the 561, 568 or 861 should provide similar sound to the 565 in terms of soundfield reproduction, including Trifield mode. You might want to buy their unit if you feel obligated to do so.
If you look around for the 565, be sure it is 7.1 channel version and has firmware 6.0 or higher.

Doesn't the 565 only support 7.1 if you use two digital speakers?
I didn't think it had 7.1 analog outputs.

  I think that is the 561, which traded for the full analog outputs for A/V switching capability.

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll keep an eye out for a 565 (presently none to be found).
