In this podcast, Walt Zerbe, Sr. Director of Technology and Standards at CEDIA and host of the CEDIA podcast, talks with Barry Sheldrick, Director of Sales and DbM at Meridian, about the company's history (which I bet you'll learn things you didn't know about Meridian), products, and technology. We also touch on what you'll see at the 2024 CEDIA Expo at their booth (C1305), which, among other products, will be showing and playing the Ellipse compact speaker. Meridian will also be debuting new on-wall and in-wall speakers.

Meridian was gracious enough to be a sponsor of the CEDIA Podcast.
