This raises some interesting questions:

How good is the ADC in the 861v8?

Does Meridian's flagship processor do a better job than many studio ADC's?

How good are the DACs in the DSP8000.2 speakers?

Does the 861v8 process of ADC - DSP8000.2 DAC produce less errors to the "MQA studio" rendered analog signal from the Explorer2?
