RE: MQA questions

MQA provides a software 'preview' tool to people like Morten Lindberg of 2L with a number of profiles. These profiles will give them an idea of how their MQA encoded files will sound through various MQA decoders. MQA decoding is only available, at present, on MQA-enabled DACs.

Trade show demos are one of the things I write about as part of my CES show coverage. They are what they are. What I have said is the MQA demos, which were presented as proof of concept, were convincing. If you take issue with that characterization, fine. Calling me a shill, is not fine.

The demos I heard in the MQA room were through headphones and in a room with one other listener who did not say a word.

In the end, and in my opinion, the only valid way to determine the efficacy of any technology to do with hi-fi is by listening to music through it in one's own system, over time. Questions of people's motive, whether or not they strike someone as being a 'nice guy', etc are irrelevant distractions brought about by a lack of real information and/or direct experience with a given technology.
