| MQA and the "Pre Ring - Post Ring" Hoax The government (specifically ours) is too busy building up the largest military in human history to care about such trivial matters. | |
| MQA and the "Pre Ring - Post Ring" Hoax @geoffkait The ancient Benz wagon I've had for many years has a six cd changer in it. I has traveled over some of the roughest roads in New England and has never missed a beat. Perhaps I should drive it out to California and wait for an earthquake... | |

| “MQA is a philosophy”..John Stuart " FWIW, to my ears and in my system, MQA files sounds consistently better than 16bit/44.1kHz files. That’s not to say that Tidal streaming sounds bad on non-MQA files. I enjoy both formats and by personal preference rooting for hi-res streaming... | |
| “MQA is a philosophy”..John Stuart A chief inherent feature of MQA is security and authentication. Very little of this side of the "product" is talked about or acknowledged by the "inventor". The files cannot be copied for example to serve as a backup should the original get corrup... | |
