When a Redbook version of anything follows, it sounds kind of 'sour', and I miss the musicality of the MQA version. Now according to some, it should definitely sound worse, but for me there is an improvement in musical values, though I appreciate my/your mileage etc.

Given what we have been told about the amazing benefits of high resolution, you should not have to struggle to hear the superiority of MQA.
