Strictly speaking, the datasheets specify 'Meridian Master Quality Authenticated'

MQA isn't Meridian anymore.

I couldn't agree more on what dpstjp writes.

The lack of communication is really frustating.

Cheers

The firmware updates will not be released until the problems at Tidal are resolved, which won't be until the next big show, which is Munich in May.

Legacy equipment updates will be delayed until the Tokyo show later in the year.

We just have to be patient, I guess. cry sleep wink

Hi Altus,

That's a disappointing message; is it confirmed or just more speculation, who is the the source of that information?

Carl

Did Meridian ever sell legacy equipment in Japan?

Never seen the Japanese "Potential" advertised by Meridian.

If you want to try an MQA file, this is a cheap introduction. Kate Rusby
I don't know if the trial stream is MQA?

Chris 🙂


No 18 in the Hall of fame smile I have simple tastes; I am content to settle for the best:
GIK monster bass panels, rear wall. QNAP TVS 471i3. Roon into DSP5200SE via 210/ 218 zone... Explorer 2. Bluesound Pulse 2, Mini & Flex. 596v1, 518, Foxsat HD, Sony BDP, Pioneer 5090, 2 Chromecast's for LRB videos. MS200 to F80 for a Roon zone

Chris,

I was going to download this and compare with Tidal version but it occurred to me that I may already be receiving the lesser benefits of un-decoded MQA if Tidal are streaming the MQA file as the studio may have only produced 1 file... Is there a way of telling?

Yes, they refuse to give any timetable. This is not tongue in cheek.
