Compared with a typical £373 asking price and a 25th percentile of £185, this one at £172 lands just below the low end of the recent comparable market, so it reads as a strong deal rather than a stretch. It is not quite a screaming bargain, but it is priced low enough to be genuinely attractive for a quick-moving used DAC.
That makes sense for a well-liked Meridian converter: these older digital units are usually bought for their smooth, tidy presentation and solid build, and they can still make a very satisfying step up from generic onboard audio or budget streamers. At this price, the upside is a clean, ready-to-use unit with classic Meridian pedigree; just make sure the required power lead and any needed digital inputs are included, since completeness matters more than chasing a few pounds here.

Meridian Audio, founded in 1977 in Cambridgeshire, England, by industrial designer Allen Boothroyd and engineer Bob Stuart, emerged as a trailblazer in high-end audio. From its inception as Boothroyd Stuart, the company quickly distinguished itself through relentless innovation, pioneering digital signal processing (DSP) and becoming the first to deliver high-resolution digital active loudspeakers for domestic use, such as the groundbreaking M1 and D600 models.
The brand's product focus centers on premium home audio systems, including DSP loudspeakers with integrated amplification, active speakers, and high-resolution components engineered for superior sound fidelity. While rooted in hi-fi excellence, Meridian has masterfully expanded into bespoke automotive audio, crafting immersive systems for luxury marques like Land Rover, Jaguar, and McLaren, with signature 3D surround setups featuring up to 23 speakers tailored to vehicle acoustics.
Positioned firmly in the high-end market, Meridian commands respect among discerning audiophiles for its British-engineered precision, over 350 industry awards, and museum-worthy designs exhibited at the Victoria and Albert Museum and MoMA. It remains a benchmark for acoustic innovation, blending heritage craftsmanship with forward-thinking technology across home and automotive realms.
