So...I downloaded some supposedly, MQA-encoded test files; from the 2L Test Bench.

Not making the MQA indicator, light-up on my Mytek Brooklyn.

Thoughts?
 
Are there maybe other test files e.g. on the Meridian site, just to double check?

If your MQA indication does not light up, check that every component (music server software, transport, etc.) before the MQA DAC is NOT doing anything that destroys the bit-perfect nature: digital volume, format conversion (*), resampling, DSP processing, etc. And verify that your DAC is indeed running the MQA-certified version of firmware.

* note: MQA should survive lossless conversion from one format to another.

Yeah; I wouldn't think...the Aurender would do so?

As for the Brooklyn; I'm at v2.05...and even though there's a 2.07, it's showing MQA-compatible since v2.0

I can't be positive, mind you; but I think setting my Brooklyn...to MQA decoder 'disabled'. Might have had something to do with it.

Hey...in my defense: when I first set it up, I thought "I'm not using this processing; let's defeat it, from being in the signal chain".

So...my heart was in the right place; just not me head :facepalm: :mock: :tutu:
