RE: HighResAudio dumps MQA.

Posted by creativepart on April 6, 2017 at 20:19:58:
I didn't realize that those Hi Rez file outlets you mentioned were now offering those files for free, or even as subscription of $20 a month. I was already a TIDAL HiFi subscriber and I already had a Meridian Exp2 DAC. So, to me the addition of their MQA Master files streaming is, well, FREE. Sure I could pay $19.95 or more for one album file from a HiRez Download company and listen to it. OR I can stream 30,000 MQA tracks for no additional cost over what I was already paying for.

Thing is I'm not trying to prove the concept of MQA. I'm not defending it or making any claims about it. I'm simply enjoying it.

I have to assume that your MQA DAC is very very good and you're making your claims of how false MQA is based upon your review of the service and it's resultant sound. You must feel it just doesn't sound good. Correct?
