The Meridian doesn't sound digital as a stand alone player. the meridian speakers are exacting and definitely but definitely not warm. The meridian player is extremely neutral, so if you system is bright or overly dark this will not compensate for that. but if you tonal balance is neutral to warm it is an amazing piece of equipment.
You really need to hear both of these in your system if possible the linn is a nice player also, so I don't think you could go wrong with either player.
I would go Meridian personally because of my experiences with their player and my system dynamics.
