Ellipse is a Meridian system, a compact, premium-crafted, and renowned sound quality product, showcasing Meridian's commitment to quality and craftsmanship in Britain.
Meridian Ellipse
Meridian Ellipse is the third loudspeaker to emerge from Meridian's Extreme Engineering Programme, producing a natural, authentic and lifelike sound which is immersive and room-filling. Ellipse is designed for music enjoyment: with a bass response usually associated with much larger speakers, Ellipse has complete control over the sound it plays, so your music is projected into the room with clarity and authority.
Ellipse is a complete Meridian system in a compact form factor. It is a distillation of everything Meridian do, and it enables you to experience Meridian’s renowned sound quality in any room. Made in Britain using premium craftsmanship, its design is undeniably Meridian.
Beautiful to look at, Ellipse is designed to subtly elevate any space. Its elliptical design signature echoes the design of other Meridian products. In combination with its harmonious curves, Ellipse boasts a luxuriously smooth, pebble-like surface in a deep, non-reflective black. Its soft and subtle finish is inviting to the touch, adding an element of style and sophistication to any modern living space. A perfect synthesis of function and form, within a timeless aesthetic.
State-Of-The-Art-Craftmanship
Each component has been meticulously specified for its acoustic benefits, aesthetic contribution, or both. Meridian Ellipse is rigorously engineered to deliver that Meridian signature sound performance in any room as well as being beautiful to look at and easy to use.
Cutting-Edge Performance
Ellipse takes the technological, engineering and manufacturing innovations in Meridian DSP8000 XE and DSP9 and distills them in a compact but extremely powerful package. An incredibly inert, perfectly sealed cabinet encloses powerful drive units and sophisticated signal-enhancing technologies. Unique control options, including Image Elevation technology and the innovative Bass and Space feature, allow the listener to tailor the sound to listening preferences, background noise levels, room size, and speaker placement.
Effortless Simplicity
Control at your fingertips. Playback functions fall easily to hand by virtue of the illuminated touch controls built into the top of the unit. Ellipse is easy to use and yet it supports a rich feature set which offers flexible set-up options and powerful user-settings.

UPnP

Twelve of Meridian’s unique DSP technologies make Ellipse capable of handling rooms of any size without compromise on sound quality.
Bass & Space
Meridian Bass & Space is a stereo enhancing technology designed to optimise and increase the sense of soundstage width.
E3 Bass (Expand, Extend, Enhance)
Meridian E3 bass uses specifically designed filters to expand, extend and enhance the low-frequency response of the loudspeaker.
Q-Sync
Meridian Q-Sync deploys Meridian's multiple “First In, First Out” buffering system which minimises jitter, ensuring perfect timing and improved clarity.
Image Focus
Image focus corrects for off-centre listening, ensuring that the original soundstage is maintained.
Free-Q
Meridian Free-Q is used to compensate for acoustic problems associated with specific loudspeaker placement conditions.
True Time
True Time is Meridian's proprietary apodising filter that avoids pre-ringing and cleans up the effects of early filters, converting pre-echo to post-echo.
Perfect Balance
Meridian Perfect Balance technology ensures that as the volume of the system varies there is no perceived loss of low and high frequencies, and spectral balance is maintained at all volume levels.
Bespoke Signal Mapping
Meridian Bespoke Signal Mapping delivers an optimal response from multi-way loudspeakers, ensuring that all drive units complement one another, providing a consistent response at all frequencies.
Pro-Active Bass
Meridian Pro-active Bass protects the bass drivers from over-excursion, ensuring maximum bass output without damaging the drive units.
Pro-Active Thermal
Meridian Pro-active Thermal monitors the audio being sent to the mid-range drivers and tweeters and limits the overall volume of the loudspeaker if there is a risk of the drive units getting too hot.
Digital Precision
Meridian Digital Precision maximises the signal-to-noise ratio of the digital audio, ensuring the finest details of every song are retained.
Image Elevation
Image elevation psychoacoustically raises the sound image to the centre of a screen – where the listener would expect to hear it from.
