Am I understanding your post to mean that you would suggest an investment in an M-Scaler over an upgraded preamp, even with a non-Chord DAC (such as my MyTek Liberty)?
I'm not a blind fanboy of MQA, but to my ears, the format is generally a win. I have found some MQA albums to have weird soundstaging compared to the Redbook version, but that's been rare.
If I have your comment correct, your suggestion is an interesting one for sure.
