go to Meridian's website and download the configure utility, it's only PC but it will allow you to configure the 861 yourself. The learning curve isn't too bad.
I understand they are adding the new RJ45 connector that is on their speakers so the v6 can better control a fully digital Meridian system, and yes, they have a new card for interfacing with the Sooloos system. Not sure of any other mods though when they first spoke of this @ CEDIa two years ago it was supposed to have significantly improved audio for everything. They might have one set up @ CES, we'll see.
