Quit frankly I do understand that they are creating MQA capable equipment for analog customers (the best versions in the world the ultra and combining 857).

What I just can't understand is why there flagship processor and the most expensive part of the Meridian system except for the 7200 and 8000 speaker could not have goten a pass through card for 2ch MQA without RC right at the beginning of the MQA launch. The expandability with a card based solution is what I bought into, The vision.

Now for simple 2ch MQA i ether need to buy a new processor for 2ch (my other just have 8chs...) or a CD player to access Tidal via Sooloos for roughly £9 000 and a messy installation and configuring situation - that is not fair!

I would have accepted a £3 000- £4 000 card for MQA 2ch pass through and hoping for mch and RC as later upgrades and the feeling that it was right to trust in the Meridian Vision! - now the taste is a bit bitter...
