Teac is pleased to announce that its NR-7CD Network CD Player/Integrated Amplifier and NT-505 USB DAC/Network Player can now be upgraded to add support for MQA.ย MQAโs award-winning technology captures and reproduces the sound of the original studio master in a file thatโs small enough to stream and download easily. MQA music is available on international streaming services and download stores including http://www.OnkyoMusic.com with new tracks being added weekly.
Mandy Clarke, Sales & Marketing Manager TEAC EU: TEACโs obsession with delivering the most faithful, true to life sound quality is well known. Adding MQA capability to the NR-7CD and NT-505 is the latest step forward in that quest, one that we know owners will truly appreciate.
Andy Dowell, Director of Licensing MQA: TEACโs adoption of MQA provides consumers with even more choice when it comes to listening to master quality music. Weโre delighted to welcome such a well-known quality brand to our ever expanding base of MQA-enabled hardware partners.
