A article we found particularly interesting; we read it start to finish!

Meridian Audio was established in 1977 by the designers Bob Stuart and Allen Boothroyd who had made their name with the Lecson ( http://www.lecson.co.uk/faq.html, http://www.thevintageknob.org/THEVAULT2/LECSON/LECSON.html 1974) and Orpheus (1975) range of amplifiers.

Bob Stuart has a background of psychoacoustics and electronic engineering while Allen Boothroyd's mechanical engineering and industrial design expertise resulting in products with a distinct emphasis on both audio engineering and aesthetic quality. Bob and Allen are the only design team to have won 3 British Design Awards, and an early product offering is on permanent display at the Museum of Modern Art in New York.
