MQA (Master Quality Authenticated) is an award-winning British technology that delivers the sound of the original master recording. The master MQA file is fully authenticated and is small enough to stream or download.
The H7 includes MQA technology, which enables you to play back MQA audio files and streams, delivering the sound of the original master recording. The H7 Sample Rate Indicator (kHz) glows green or blue to indicate that the unit 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. It glows blue to indicate 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. It glows magenta to indicate that the unit is rendering an MQA stream or file. This delivers the final unfold of the MQA file.
