Although 3.07 works with MQA, one should get 3.08 which fixes a few things.

I understood the 818v3 analogue outputs are on the same level as the SE analogue output component. (Or was that a presumption?) Either way, MQA from analogue out on my 818v3 sounds amazing. The 818v3 displays the same as when playing to SE speakers.
