9. MQA - Master Quality Authenticated
The Manhattan II DAC is capable to decode MQA les. The option can be activated in the
Manhattan II DAC menu. The colour of the MQA logo indicates if the MQA streaming is detected.
• Grey logo – MQA not found, MQA stream is not detected
• Green logo – MQA valid, the MQA is detected
• Blue logo – MQA authored, the MQA is detected and the le is fully authenticated. You can be
sure you are hearing exactly what the artist approved in the studio
What is MQA?
MQA is audio recording and compression format created by Meridian Audio. It is also a new sophisticated
method of digitally storing recorded music as a le that is small and convenient to download or even
stream. There are no sonic sacrices that are usually associated with compressed les. What this
basically means is that high resolution audio streaming could nally be a reality, with songs being
able to be delivered exactly how they were recorded in the studio, without requiring huge amounts of
bandwidth to deliver.
How does MQA work?
MQA can pack up the information from a lossless 24-bit 192kHz PCM le into the sort of space needed
for a 24-bit / 44.1KHz stream. In practice, MQA is delivered to listeners as a typical lossless le, such
as FLAC or Apple Lossless at 44kHz or 48kHz at 24 bits.
