It provides a clear explanation of the type of artifacts that are created when the so called MQA "folding" and "unfolding" is applied to the original file.
As mentioned in the article, it is a subjective cure that may or may not be preferred by a given listener.
For my part, I was able to experiment with a high end MQA DAC for an extended period of time.......

cmarin - if there is any system out there should should be able to discern the MQA difference, yours should be it. Impressive to say the least.
Trying to understand MQA by reading their patents is risky endeavor (Jim Luserf's excellent article, and similar). Meridian should allow expert dissemination of their approach. Either they are onto something or not. Their patent has issued (see below) so they have protection.
US Patent 9,548,055 "Doubly compatible lossless audio bandwidth extension"
issued January 2017 to Peter Craven of Meridian.
