MERIDIAN G96

MERIDIAN G96

G96 DVD Transport

The G96 offers not only superb audio reproduction but also crystal-sharp, high-definition video. It plays audio CDs, MP3 CDs, Video CDs and DVD-Video discs, including the DVD side of DualDiscs, and can decode Dolby Digital, DTS, MPEG and MP3 data streams to PCM for stereo playback, meaning that a complete stereo DVD replay system can be created with the addition of a pair of Meridian DSP speakers. The G96 can output Dolby Digital, DTS, and MPEG bitstreams, making it the ideal companion for a G Series surround processor such as the G61R or G68.

The G96 includes a powerful video processor and scaler which can simultaneously provide composite and S-video outputs, plus progressive component video and up to 1080p via HDMI. It offers two composite video, one component video and three S-video inputs, all of which can be routed to any of the video outputs with appropriate scaling
