Hi Wombat! My (obviously subjective) problem with square waves is "heard one, you've heard 'em all". Hell, they don't even list the composers or artists on these test discs anymore. Solo piano is not *-that-* easy to reproduce because of a rapid initial transient followed by a decay, both controlled by a combination of the instrument and the performer. The composer usually provides some modest input regarding the sequence of notes, tempo, style, you know, that kind of musical thing. Opinion: I like Debussy; I don't like square waves. I do believe that MQA will prove to be a here today, gone tomorrow fad and one without any particular merits in the first place however, so we're not totally at odds.
