RE: Hmm....

In case you don't realize it I'm not anti something I haven't heard. But I admit I'm skeptical.

I checked some examples out at that site, but AFAIK the point is hearing MQA via a compatible dac, which I don't have. If I had to go by what I just heard its no big deal.

Dunno what "the best, most authentic masters they can find" means.

Dunno what you're calling "raw" either. IME raw means the unmixed individual tracks - and eq for individual tracks may be added or altered while mixing. Any changes in individual raw tracks from what was used in the original mix/master would by definition result in different sound, and obviously re-mixing would also result in a different sound. Any label could do that (assuming they still have the raw track files) if they thought it'd generate new sales of an old release via advertising a new and of course "better" mix/master......with or without MQA.

Anyway, I'll just have to reserve judgment until I hear the full monty. Thanks for hipping me to that site.
