Ron, I just finished packing up my warm clothes and am headed to the Annual Gala. Robert Harley likes MQA so you have to question his hearing and expertise.
I was there too, along with my Orange County audiophile posse!
I have been happy to remain blissfully ignorant of MQA. I literally don't even know what the acronym stands for.
But I disagree very strongly with your logic that if somebody hears something I do not then by that fact alone his hearing and his expertise are wholly suspect?
