>>What you detail above, the over top, (to the point of absurdity), raving about MQA by the press, in show demos carefully controlled by Meridian, is what set off many in the online world on a negative trip. Now, we are hearing the same "wait a second, let's look behind the curtain" process from a member of the press, which is refreshing.<<
FWIW, Stereophile has been peaking behind the curtain for months. What a lot of people don't seem to like is that what they see seems to make sense.
>>And, the constantly changing stories..for downloads and streaming, then just for streaming, for the remastering process, now no remastering needed, then we hear about thousands of albums from the Warner catalog batch converted on the fly.<<
Most of the "changing stories" I've seen--and I've watched this unfold since the beginning--are misinformation on forums like this one. To a lesser extent, the problem has been with the audiophile press, some parts of which may have gotten a few things wrong. Some of that misinformation is on display here. For example: MQA has always been intended for downloads and streaming. You can put it on silver discs if you want to. For another, this "batch" and "on the fly" business just doesn't match up with my understanding of how the process works. Hopefully more information, clarifying this murky picture, will be available on the Stereophile website soon.
