"All it has to do is sound better than a Redbook CD.
Does it?
Who knows?
Some audio reviewers say it does(but who trusts them)"It does both streamed from Tidal to a non MQA dac and also to a Meridian Explorer2. The non MQA dac is the Audio-GD Master 7 But I doubt you trust me.

Apples to apples would be to rip a 'good' CD and play it back using the Meridian Explorer 2 DAC then use the same computer that contains the ripped CD to stream the MQA Master version via TIDAL using the same Meridian DAC.
Then stream it using the software decoder that is part of the TIDAL Player to the MASTER-7 (or Master 11, I have both) and compare THAT to the above AND to the rip using either or both of the above Audio-GD DACs.
No, haven't taken the time to do all of that even though I have all the gear needed to do it.
