Introduction
T
he Meridian 568 Digital Surround Processor combines a completely digital
surround-sound processor with a high-performance digital preamplifier in a
single integrated unit. It takes advantage of the latest techniques in high-
precision analogue electronics and digital signal processing, and the result
is an impressively realistic and exciting reproduction of music and cinema
sound.
The 568 Digital Surround Processor accepts both analogue and digital
sources, and supports all the current two-channel and multi-channel audio
formats including PCM, Dolby Digital (AC-3), DTS, and MPEG. It also
includes several proprietary processing modes, including the MLP
(Meridian Lossless Packing) format.
For instructions on setting up the unit turn to Setting up the digital
surround processor, page 49. Once the digital surround processor has
been set up refer to Using the digital surround processor, page 13, for
information about getting the best results from all your music and film
recordings.
