It's still early days. The programmed demos are only teasers. Until MQA material is out in the wild a lot of questions will go unanswered. I'm hoping Tidal will give us opportunity to do the comparisons you mentioned. I plan on picking up an Explorer 2 just for that reason. A small spend to determine if I want to make the big spend.
