Does the mqa d90 perform worse than the regular d90 or you don't believe it's worth the extra money?I don't recommend MQA.

I'm thinking about picking up a d90 mqa even though I have a m400. The rca on the m400 is a little messed up but I will only be using the xlr anyway. Comments and opinions please.
If you are using XLR, there are no known issues that I know of. M400 is top of the line AK4499-based and supports MQA. I don't see the need to buy something else if you own it, already. In fact I'd love to own an M400 haha just, enjoy.I'm thinking about picking up a d90 mqa even though I have a m400. The rca on the m400 is a little messed up but I will only be using the xlr anyway.

This attitude is ridiculousI have a d90 sans mqa. I don't use tidal and even if I did mqa is not a format I want to support, and you're giving mqa cash if you buy it.
the d90 oozes quality and is very sleek looking
“Very bad” what does that even mean?Forget MQA. Is a lossy (and very bad) format.
Yea I wanna know too.Does the mqa d90 perform worse than the regular d90 or you don't believe it's worth the extra money?
Have done tests of 24/192 flac vs mqa. It does depend on the recording. I can’t figure out if it is because some producers know how to present mqa better within the mastering chain or if certain types of music or recordings translate better on mqa vs hi-res flac. It’s been a year trying to find mqa and hi-res of the same issue and release. When I go to dsd it seems the soundstage becomes better but not enough dsd, 24/192 and mqa of the same material.When every device under the sun supports flac I really don't see any point in MQA. Just seems like a way to charge more for no benifits.
I just noticed your avatar.. screws looseForget MQA. Is a lossy (and very bad) format.
Easy on the personal attacks.I just noticed your avatar.. screws loose
This attitude is ridiculous
But, you get the blue light...don't need yet another standard that doesn't add any value except for gimmicks, and requires hardware licensing fees in perpetuity to the manufacturers, driving prices up because people see a higher tier of streaming available on tidal and want to fool themselves.
who's the ridiculous one?
MQA is lossy though. Not to mention it is very obviously a DRM scheme to get people to pay to be able to decode it. Not even starting to argue whether it can improve anything, the encoding of MQA and DRM notion of it are more than enough for a lot of people to not care about, or oppose it. No need to resort to personal attacks if you do like it, everyone can have their views and opinions, yes?I just noticed your avatar.. screws loose
Why?I don't recommend MQA.
Dude they've been making audio and video codecs for years look it up,now if MQA survive it survive if it don't it don't,there is always gonna be something new,who's the ridiculous one now.don't need yet another standard that doesn't add any value except for gimmicks, and requires hardware licensing fees in perpetuity to the manufacturers, driving prices up because people see a higher tier of streaming available on tidal and want to fool themselves.
