Hi Gruffle,

This is all an 'educated' guess based on feedback from many sources including very senior people at Meridian.

To support MQA Meridian hardware will require a yet to be realeased firmware / software update.

It's expected that Sooloos will support MQA files and MQA streaming from Tidal, how that pans out with the current endpoints we just don't know yet (818, 808 excepted).

We believe that MQA streams (pre validated / part decoded) can be transmitted via MHR.

We believe that all MHR capable DSP will be able to support MQA (to the best of their hardware's ability).

We don't know how any of M's processors legacy or current will handle MQA.

I hope Meridian make announces that clarify the situation during CES.

Regards,
Carl
