Important safety instructions
Read the instructions.
Keep these instructions.
Follow all instructions.
Do not use this apparatus near water.
Clean only with a dry cloth.
Install only in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
Refer all servicing to approved service personnel.
WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC
SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS APPARATUS TO RAIN OR
MOISTURE.
This apparatus has been designed with Class 1 construction
and must be connected to a mains socket outlet with a
protective earthing connection (the third grounding pin).
This apparatus uses a single-pole power switch. As a result it is
not isolated from AC mains power when switched off at the rear
panel. The apparatus may be isolated from mains power either
by unplugging the power connector from the rear of the unit, or
by unplugging the connector at the opposing end of the power
cord or cable from its supply outlet. As a result, either or both
of these connectors should remain accessible.

Introduction
The Meridian UHD722 HDMI Processor is the perfect link
between your Meridian system and the latest HDMI-equipped
video sources. The UHD722 supports UHD (Ultra High Definition),
HD (High Definition) and SD (Standard Definition) video.
The UHD722 seamlessly integrates up to seven HDMI sources
into your Meridian system. The UHD722 splits the HDMI
datastream from the selected source into separate audio and
video signals. The video signal can be sent to one or two
display devices while the audio is sent out of the unit free
from the risk of subsequent sonic degradation caused by the
presence of digital video signals.
The UHD722 supports CEC (Consumer Electronics Control)
and ARC (Audio Return Channel). CEC allows you to control
volume, source selection, and standby on the UHD722 from
other CEC-equipped devices. ARC allows you to return digital
audio over the same HDMI cable used to connect to your
display device, such as a television, sending the audio to a
digital surround controller.
Audio processing
The UHD722 features our performance enhancement
technologies, including digital audio upsampling and downsampling,
FIFO buffering, resolution enhancement, and lipsync control.
The UHD722 extracts up to eight channels of high-resolution
audio from the HDMI datastream, supplying them to separate
audio-only outputs, thus minimising signal degradation caused
by harmonic interference from high frequency video signals.
Clock variations, known as jitter, are one of the main causes
of unpleasant “glare” in digital audio systems. The Meridian
UHD722 solves this problem with our proprietary jitter reduction
technique using a FIFO (first-in first-out) buffer that allows an
independent output clock to deliver clock performance that does
not rely upon on the incoming signal quality. This ensures that the
audio extracted from the HDMI stream is of the highest quality.
The MMHR and SmartLink outputs can be set to deliver either
standard (44.1/48 kHz) or high resolution (88.2/96 kHz)
sample rate digital audio, with resolution enhancement of up
to 24-bit. When set to standard rates, the output is either
44.1 or 48 kHz irrespective of the input rate. When set to high
rates, the output is always either 88.2 or 96 kHz, irrespective
of the input rate. Standard sample rates are upsampled using
Meridian’s powerful apodising technology.
The processor also includes a configurable audio delay of up to
85ms to allow lipsyncing, allowing you to ensure that sound is
always in perfect synchronisation with the picture.

System integration
The UHD722 can easily be integrated with a Meridian audio/
video system. The HDMI input will switch in unison with source
selection on the system controller, by either direct connection or
using the supplied Comms adapter with legacy systems.

Configuration Program, and updated
with firmware updates.
ARC input
The HDMI Out 1 connection can also provide an ARC input; for
example, to return audio from a CEC-enabled television.
The ARC input is only available on the SpeakerLink output.
This audio output is a direct audio signal from HDMI Out 1 and
therefore bypasses the UHD722 digital signal processing.
When the ARC input is selected only the Standby LED is
illuminated on the front panel.
