I have a 101 on approval and it sounds dire. The bass is monotone, thudding and exaggerated, the midrange is slightly muffled and the treble dull. I have tested it with both Avondale and Naim power amps and the sound was basically the same. The guy I borrowed it from said this is normal, as they only work properly with Meridian power amps. Is this the case? I had a quick look inside and it all looks original, I guess it could just need a recap/service? The sound is the same irrespective of source or input.
It looks like this:
But has the original axial smoothing caps. Any decent 100 series links or information about alternative modules would also be appreciated.
