A big thank-you to Ian at Martins HiFi for updating my DSP5200SE's over the weekend.

With a 218, there seems to be no appreciable difference in capability; I've tried all sorts of combinations and permutations, but with Roon playing the role of MQA Core Decoder, all I can see on the DSP's display is either PCM or MHR (dependant on the 218's settings).

The 210 we tried on the shop did pass more information through and we saw OFs displayed on MQA material.

Roll-on a 218 firmware update...
