MASTER QUALITY AUTHENTICATED
Master Quality Authenticated
(MQA) is a revolutionary end-to-end
technology built into T 778 that
captures and delivers master quality
audio. T 778 includes a powerful
decoder and audio renderer for the MQA system. This ensures that MQA-
encoded audio les sound exactly like the source.
In the BluOS app, the MQA indicator displays green or blue to indicate that
the unit is decoding and playing an MQA le. It displays green to indicate
decoding and playback of a MQA le and denotes provenance to ensure
that the sound is identical to that of the source material. It displays blue to
indicate playback of MQA Studio le that has either been approved in the
studio by the artist/ producer or has been veried by the copyright owner.
IMPORTANT
When listening to MQA audio les, set the following options for optimal
performance
• Setup Menu $ Listening Mode Setup $ Listening Modes $ PCM $
Stereo/Surround $ None
• Main Menu $ Tone Controls $ Tone Defeat $ On
