Meridian founders Bob Stuart and Allen Boothroyd met in Cambridge in the early 1970s and it was through a shared love of music they became friends.  It was also their desire to better hear the music they loved that inspired them to design and manufacture their own audio equipment.  And so Meridian was born.

Since founding the company more than 30 years ago in 1977, both have remained at the heart of their respective disciplines: Bob heading all technological developments; Allen leading the design team.  Based in Cambridgeshire, as they have been from the company's inception, every Meridian piece is still conceived, engineered, and built in the UK. 

Today, Meridian makes some of the most highly-praised audio equipment in the world; including 808.3 CD player, DSP speakers, and its Digital music system Sooloos.  We, at Element Acoustics, are happy to be a part of Meridian family, and offering to our customers.
