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 Smile
And again - we strongly need native MQA support on Devialet
If not - I'll thinking about migration to MQA DAC/Amp combo Smile
In preferences - audio system:

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!
Oslo: sources: Mac Mini/Itunes/Audirvana,  glassfiber toslink/Mapleshade clearview USB to D200;
