Kripton Embraces MQA for Hi-Res Download Service, Hardware Products
Kripton will add Master Quality Authenticated (MQA) music to its HQM hi-res download service in October, the company said in a Monday announcement. Labels offering MQA-encoded recordings on the service for the first time include Camerata Tokyo, Shinko Music Entertainment and Berkeley Square Music, said the company. Kripton President Masahisa Hamada said MQA solves the issue of large files for hi-res music. The company will also incorporate MQA technology in its hardware products, he said.
