MQA through Toslink

Any DACs you know do this under the $400 mark?

Thanks!

The Node 2 does have a digital optical input, though I’m not sure if it can unfold MQA content from the digital input or only through streaming sources.

The manual doesn't explicitly state MQA decoding via optical, but it doesn't say it doesn't (like the Pro-ject DAC).
