MQA Labs has announced its plans for its Qrono line of audio technologies. After going into administration last year and then being bought by Lenbrook Media Group a few months later, plans were teased in the summer of 2024 concerning MQA. The newly branded "Airia", Foqus" and "Qrono" initiatives vowed to "bring audio processing enhancements across the music supply chain", with Qrono specifically aiming to bring a variety of audio-processing enhancements to playback devices.

MQA Labs and Lenbrook have further divulged what Qrono is and how it will be implemented moving forward, announcing two technologies within the line. 'Qrono dsd' promises to "set a new standard in DSD-to-PCM converters", whereas 'Qrono d2a' has been designed to "get the best audio performance out of every DAC".
