I had a Topping D90SE DAC that does MQA. I sold it and a few years later (last month) bought the $100 less Topping D90LE. Both are great DACs and a used one should be about $500.
I also had a PeachTree Nova 150 and the DAC in that is not comparable to the latest iteration of DAC, including the low-cost Topping.
BTW - I ditched the MQA when the MQA guys gave a demo I was at, with about $200K+ of gear. I could not hear anything magical with MQA. I likely will also ditch my Qobuz and just use Tidal, so I have more than enough reasons to use MQA. I think my Qobuz is messing up somehow (or it could be something in my streaming chain).
