My Meridian 506 has served me perfectly for up to 8 years. Now in some records, it is bound to jump. I have this problem before, but he cured itself after being moved. It is happening again, as never before Now I chose the Meridian 506 because of its lush sound, colorful rendering of textures, its rich warmth and the capacity to play the grain of instruments, and all the colors that exist in true music, What can I do. Sent it back to Meridian or buy a new one. Has Meridien sound changed a lot? from the old days? Or has it become terribly expensive? What it the similarly price alternative? Are Any new brands so lush and yet bright? I'm not willing to pay a lot. The rest of the system is the Lavardin It (terrible transparent) and the somewhat sweey sounding speakers are the ribbon top proacs (the edged ones), Suggestions anyone? Musical only classical and chiefly small ensembles, even if I indulge in a bit of Bruckner. Main emphases on the organ and the harpsichord, but also on vocal music.
