Today I tried using a Node2 as input for my DSP8000USE's.
The setup was: Put some MQA encoded tracks on a playlist in Tidal Use digital out from Node2 directly into DSP8000 Node2 app said MQA, when playing 192khz or 96khz, the display on my DSP8000's said 96khz, but no indication of MQA...
Question is then, what does the Node2 actually output on the digital coax - it seems to be 96khz, but is it 24bit? Is it lossless? Is it MQA in some way?
It sounded really good, but I did not have time enough to do a real comparison with other hires I have myself playing through Sooloos...
Among other things I played Cypres Avenue with Van Morrison - incredible sound from the MQA track... so if I did listen to MQA, I can hardly wait for the 218 to arrive or maybe even an 818...
