MQA is like those old commercials where Dianetics is the solution to everything. P. 123, how to improve your sex life. P 345, how fix your bicycle. P. 213, how to attain eternal bliss... MQA is getting "rapid acceptance" on Scientology cruise ships with measles outbreaks Shadders and MikeyFresh 2 Link to comment
Ralf11 Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 Good!! This site needs a discussion of photography, the Nature of Art, and the Germanic Total Art Movement, and why it never caught on much elsewhere. Thuaveta 1 Link to comment

Mr. Nuts (my apologies if it's Dr. Nuts) leaves me grasping for words, such is my awestruck admiration. In the context of his thoughtful posting above, we can contrast the engineering qualifications and relevant professional experience of two industry giants and confidently judge the utility of what each has to say. We are truly blessed to have so many beacons of truth selflessly offering their expertise on AS forums as, miraculously, these considered and authoritative opinions are not routinely celebrated elsewhere. Bob Stuart Metal Nuts Education Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering and acoustics ? Masters degree in Operations Research Design/Development Career Highlights First audiophile CD player (1983) ? First DSP-powered loudspeaker (1990) First digital surround processor (1994) Meridian Lossless Packing (2000) MQA (2014) Professional Awards AES Life Fellow ? CEDIA Lifetime Achievement Award (2015) Actual name J. Robert ("Bob") Stuart ? * * Metal Nuts may not be his real name This post just reeks of civility, Mr. SQuint. or is it Dr. SQuint?

Soundwise that is. If so, I beg to disagree. Near SOTA digital performance is not the same as saying it sounds as good. In audio "nearly as good" can mean all the difference in the World. All in all it is lovely design and well worth the money. Just saying. did you/your colleagues do a comparison listening session? if so, is it posted somewhere? Link to comment
