You got the Pioneer XDP-100R for instance and you can connect the Meridian Explorer2 to any analogue high end system and get MQA all the way.

I understand that they are two separate companies, but the marketing strategy has not been that way. At least not for Meridian owners. If they did MQA Inc on the sideline without mixing into Meridian products it would be different. Problem is that they have been using MQA to hype Meridian products for 2 years or so. They must know for sure that they got a lot of customers waiting for answers.

It's just like the Sony Alpha 7 system, they had a new high end camera system but no lenses for it. (other than kit lens) but due to the roadmap they provided for the next 3 years it was easy to jump on that horse because you knew what to expect.

How hard can it be to present what to expect for Legacy owners?

And at least they should come up with a roadmap for their 861 owners... Do we need a new plug in card, or do we actually need to replace the whole unit? Will multi channel ever be supported? and so on... Questions are many.
