IMO all depends on quality level of rest of your system.
Speaking from experience with full mqa across 3 systems, it is only my main system where I can appreciate the sonic difference of mqa. But the difference on that system is substantial and well worth price of admission for me. I gravitate to mqa albums there because noticeably improved quality.
But it on my second and third music systems (roughly $3k and $1k total each) I can’t necessarily hear the mqa difference.
That’s not to say results would be same for all systems in those price ranges, but just my experience with my stuff.
