It looks like -once again- dCS owners can skip MQA Qrono:
MQA QRONO:
We started with a question, “what was missing from
digital music?”. Perhaps we should have asked, “what
was added by digital capture and playback?”. We now
know that the ADCs used in recording studios, and
our DACs used for playback, added time blur from the
ringing in their filters.
From: (The above linked White Paper)
dCS:
This is the reason a dCS DAC has so many filters to choose from – the DAC doesn’t (and can’t) know the filters which were used to create the signal, so several options allow the user to achieve the best musical experience irrespective of source material.
dCS’s experience with both ADCs and DACs leaves us in a very strong position to be able to create DAC filters which consistently perform to the highest standards, both in testing and with real-world musical signals.
