 But there's no guarantee you'd hear a difference from that MQA upgrade, or even from upgrading to an external DAC in general, though many of us do.

You can never know what someone's going to hear. That's one reason people are so interesting. And why there are so many different DACs out there.

 

I can agree with this.

Just a quick nfo:

 

MQA is now officially available for the Pro iDSD

 

As some of you good people know, Beta firmware v2.1MQA has been available on our website since 27 February.

 

The Beta version has now been confirmed as the official current firmware for the Pro iDSD.

From MQA:

 

“iFi Audio is announcing the latest firmware update for the Pro iDSD making it the first in the range to support full MQA decoding. The DAC can also be paired with any CD player to experience MQA-CD playback.”

 

You can download the firmware here (if you haven’t already!)
