If you play regular redbook or 24/96. Is the analog still better than SL to 861v8 from a 818v3?

I'm just trying to wrap my head around this. smile

BTW interesting note about HS=Y interfering with analog input which should go in as 24/96 straight. Meridian would be interested in this I wager..
Always nice to hear from a fellow Trifield listener, especially 7.0!

I spent the last weekend listening to MQA and comparing it extensively. I will spend some time this weekend seeing what I think of analog out vs SpeakerLink on CD and 24/96 recordings.

I would not have expected upsampling to help in this situation. Toggling high speed on and off is a easy comparison to make for anyone else out there auditioning MQA on Meridian gear.
