MQA decoding
This unit includes the MQA (Master Quality
Authenticated) technology, which enables playback
of MQA audio files and streams, delivering the
sound of the original master recording. This unit is a
CD player that can recognize an MQA-CD.
The built-in MQA decoder will restore the high-
resolution signal heard in the studio and confirm it,
using the authentication signature.

is decoding and playing an MQA stream or file,
and denotes provenance to ensure that the sound
is identical to that of the source material. “MQA
Studio” indicates it is playing an MQA Studio file,
which has either been approved in the studio by
the artist/producer or has been verified by the
copyright owner.

MQA files or streams may not be decoded to
deliver the master quality audio depending on the
setting of the connected digital audio device. For
