Ian, good points. I think there will be a silent majority (as always) that just isn't troubled by this at all. 2.1 or 2.2 works just fine for them.

That there are going to be choices is actually quite refreshing in what was once a very closed architecture. If this means HQ spend their limited resources on continuing to make top-notch end points and hardware then great.

That said, I agree with VK, in that it is high time HQ revealed what MQA is going to mean and also what will they be doing with 2.2 and Roon. I wouldn't underestimate just how complex those item are to resolve.

Rgds,
Nick
