Those of us who own a Bluesound device -- I've got a Node 2 -- might see a free firmware upgrade around the time of the Munich Hi-End Show (May 5-8) activating MQA decoding. Then we can see what the fuss is about by accessing some of the free 2L MQA files and playing them via Bluesound. Should be fun!
