But. I run MQA and have a blue logo with J.River! Works perfect with Mytek Brooklyn DAC!

So, my opinion about quality (remember, this is a connection iMac - Usb - Mytek Brooklyn DAC - Devialet 400 line in, so this is too many digital to analog an analog to digital conversations):
Use Mozart: Violin concerto in D major - Allegro
Marianne Thorsen / TrondheimSolistene / 2nl
24/192 flac - good starting point
Dsd 128 - level of detail is up, but soundstage and instruments is more "thin"
Mqa 24/352,8 - clear winner, detail and soundstage is up again, sound is fantastic rich and natural
So, I'll think MQA is a future. But not now - now bugged software reduce fun
And again - we strongly need native MQA support on Devialet
If not - I'll thinking about migration to MQA DAC/Amp combo
Exclusive access mode
Direct mode
Integer Mode
Integer mode 1
In preferences - audio filters:
Forced up sampling: none (important)
In preferences - audio volume
DAC only (important too)
Hope this helps!
