The best part about MQA bankruptcy..

A bankruptcy isn't necessarily the end and it certainly isn't going to stop a hit like Tidal.

MQA is very good from my experience with a MSB DAC.

FTR: I have an early MQA capable DAC and I ended up turning it off early on. I couldn’t hear a benefit and my DAC forced me to stick to apodizing filters which I didn’t like as much as other choices.

From a pure sound quality perspective I’ve just never heard a reason to use it, and from a bandwidth savings perspective it’s the 21st Century and even in the US we don’t need it.

Yeah, TIdal shouldn’t have to go bankrupt also, they’re just losing credibility for letting mqa spoof so many people.

But it’s true, streaming higher res audio is a trickle compared to Netflix, which streams 42 times as much with their 4k plan as Tidal does with any plan, for notable less money. (Tidal streams the same amount no matter which plan you get)

If you bought a dac that has an mqa chip, remember that mqa's only hope is to sound like it wasn't even there, and it could actually really equal what it would sound like if Tidal had just trickled more, like everyone else does.

Ha, if mqa wants to be the best thing ever, it has to sound like it doesn't even exist, anyways.

MQA is very good from my experience with a MSB DAC.

i agree with this... on my msb analog dac, mqa music sounds terrific... though i have to admit this observation is probably more about the msb than mqa...
