I just lost what little interest I had in MQA.

5 of 18 claimed they heard a difference.
The rest didn't say one way or the other.
That's tho be expected of audiophiles at a meetup where folks don't know each other well.
Audiophiles live in constant fear that their inability to hear differences various pieces of audio gear will be discovered; differences that may not even exist. The only greater fear is that they will be accused of owning an audio system incapable of resolving differences that also don't exist.
The whale that spouts is the one who gets harpooned....
We are all just people trying to enhance the listening experience. Many of these products are ALL good, and the differences are not so dramatic, once one gets to a certain point.
Couple that with unfamiliar music,....

Behind his eyes he says, 'I still exist.'"

That's definitely a no-win situation because the whale that doesn't spout dies of asphyxiation. ;-)
By the way, I did not ask the question "Do you hear a difference?" I just wanted there gut feeling of what they were hearing. I did not want to turn this into a shootout. We may do this in the future when more MQA material is available

The power of suggestion and "heard" mentality. Same for various USB tweaks. ;-)
