download meridian 561 configuration program software

This will still be easy to configure via the front panel. Do if you want an analogue version of the CD source, you will need to configure this otherwise, as you have found, the digital input will be used. The Meridian philospohy is for an all digital theatre. You will need the manual for this and can be done via front panel. Its a standard composite loop through that will overlay on an existing composite signal - ie you need a valid composite feed in before you get any output.Īs a starting point, you may want to 're-type' your 561 depending on your configuration. I don't know what your doing trying to put TV RF into the Meridian. The G-series one is different and will likely be the most recent. As for downloading the latest, make sure you get the version for the 500/800 series. It just avoids the pitfalls associated with serial connectors and laptops. You will need a null modem cable, and a USB to serial converter if you are using a laptop - a cheap generic one from Maplin will suffice.

DTS and DD 5.1 are great so far (ie, working ) I will try option 3 as soon as I've downloaded the software (I presume I just want the latest available)īut until now, I've had to use option 1. I tried option 2, but no luck, presumably as I don't have the necessary connections - I connected my TV's RF in, into the processor, then out of processor, to the TV - but the Meridian's composite in & out aren't exactly the same as a std TV Well I've just connected my first AV system - get in!Īs this is my first system, I have more to learn than most, but setting up the 561 is proving very difficult.Ģ) As above, with the help of display info on a tv
