Hi Archimago! I agree entirely with your prophecy that MQA will be judged by audiophile history to have been a "7 day wonder". However I note from one of your earlier blog posts that a friend of yours has a Mytek Brooklyn DAC (which has hardware MQA capability & was therefore of use for your initial investigations of MQA). I too have one of these "Brokkly"s, to use Wombat's expression, which I was lucky enough to acquire cheaply through an eBay auction - it's "ex-demo" but as new & warrantied. I just wondered what your opinion of this DAC is. I didn't buy mine because of the MQA capability but because it seemed reasonably flexible with regard to higher resolution PCM & DSD streams, & also includes a decent balanced headphone amplifier for my Sennheiser HD800S cans together with an MC/MM phono preamp for my legacy LP12/Ittok/Koetsu Rosewood Signature which I have been safeguarding through numerous relocations since the 1980's. Have you run any of your excellent testing routines on the Brokkly?
