RE: Great Story -- But Small Differences Again...

Posted by Doug Schneider on October 28, 2016 at 12:12:45:
I'm not sure it's a dozen!

As far as I can tell, there are two aspects to MQA:

1) Compression -- this is useful for folks with bandwidth issues. I'm not one of them (heck, my generous cellphone plan now follows me around the world), but for those who are, knock your socks off and use it.

2) Sound Improvement -- this is all that interests me. This supposed "time-smearing" fix.

Out of those two things we have gotten from -- I'd argue, less than a dozen -- absolute raves that this encoding scheme is the Next Big Thing. But the company won't do comparisons, and when they are done, they're small to nonexistent. It makes me wonder, too.
