Meridian 508 20 Service Needed


Has anyone had any luck getting a Meridian player serviced in recent years? They no longer directly support it. Mine developed a problem and a local repair shop was unable to isolate it without schematics or service manual, which too apparently is unavailable.

Try this site. Look for Mark Koval, he was Meridians lead service tech and is now on his own. He go's to this site.

I find that very disturbing that Meridian won't fix a 4000 CD player that they sold only 10 or so years ago. I would give pause to buying anything Meridian if that is the kind of attitude they have to a customer that laid that kind of cash out for one of their products. I have had a repair done before on a Meridian product and they had a very strange fee schedule for repairs. It was just a flat fee of for instance 500 to fix whatever was wrong. Thankfully I was able to locate a receipt and got it fixed under warranty but if their policy is to just quit supporting products a few years after they are released then that is a company I would avoid buying their products.

I'm sure if you make a big enough deal about it they can fix it. Also BTW those Meridian CD players are known to break I had one break and a buddy of mine his had problems too. They sound nice but I would avoid them.
