I downloaded 2 tracks from 2L of violin concerto no 4:

1..The MQA version
2.. 24/96 version

I was blown away by the MQA version played undecoded thru my system.

The 24 bit version just lost the sense of realism of the UNDECODED MQA (24/44)... Not subtle differences either... the MQA one sounded real ... the 24/96 like hifi.

I would be amazed if the reproduction was even more improved once decoded... as it's amazing right now.
