YES, the meridian line are fantastic. I've owned the 561 and 568.1 and they are both fabulous. Meridian is the best processor for 2 channel and very capable for HT. Best of all, the 568 is current as it uses software upgrades from the internet. You won't go wrong. Some good deals can be had as the new G series is out replacing the 500 series. However, it seems most of us are trying to buy up the 568's.
