Hello,

does anybody know what kind of digital output I will get for MQA files? I want to connect a Node 2 via digital output to an Anthem Statement D2 processor and need standard PCM output.

Thanks

  Hi Kai

  The NODE 2 will decode the MQA file at it's highest resolution, you will however have to check with your DAC distributor regarding their end of the spectrum.

  Hi Tony,

  so it will output a standard PCM signal that non MQA enabled DACs will understand (in case that the frequency/bit rate is compatible) ?

  Thanks for clarification

  Question regarding MQA. I have the original Pulse. I have been told that my device will support MQA. However, my understanding is that the internal DAC would need to be capable of translating the codex. I believe that the Pulse One was out on the market before MQA was introduced. I am using Tidal as my music source. I know at this point there is very little MQA music available, but I am think about the future. is the Dac in my Pulse MQA enabled?

  Can you explain how this codex will work with my Pulse?
