Thanks all for responding. My dealer interestingly did not know this.

I will swap my new 218 for a 210 as it will no doubt be better future proofed.

One other thought, is there no way of using the 210 for fully unwrapping MQA without having Meridian active speakers? This would mean huge investment of ditching my existing set up (Cyrus and B&W) Is there another piece of hardware that would do the job?

I’ve read been reading on the internet about devices such as Allo Digione with Raspberry Pi providing a complete unwrap for relatively low expense. I don’t necessarily want to rely on my electronics skills to reliably listen to music though so would prefer a fully developed solution.
