Another issue with the v8 is no MQA if the format does take off. I'm certainly not minded to swap my cheapo 861v4 with ID40 in any great hurry, or for any significant incremental cost whatever folks say about the uplift in sound quality.

Sooloos, Roon, G series (with LPS upgrade), 800 series (with LPS upgrade), HD621, AC200, Prime and PS, DSPs old and new.

Purdeys, Moke, Leica, 'Blad. Only the best.
