Oppo UDP-205 MQA Confusion

Jeff,

Thank you for posting your feedback. I was wondering about the MQA compatibility as well. 

I did grab couple of MQA CD’s last time I visited RMAF and they do sound bit better than their equivalent 16bit/44.1kHz file. The sound is fuller, dynamic and high’s are crystal clear. 

If you or anyone interested in MQA downloads, you can try the HRA.

IMO, 205 is the best 4K player currently available that offers superlative video and audio. It’s a quite a bargain! 

Thank you for responding. I wasn't aware that MQA could be 
experienced outside of streaming, which is what I do via 
Tidal Masters and a Dragonfly Red. I do enjoy it very much.

There are lot of high res demo files you can download from 2L, including MQA, so that you can compare it with other formats.  The MQA files are much smaller in size.

Wondering if I can streaming Tidal MQA using USB DAC from my PC to Oppo 205.
