There is no specific technical requirement that forces you to go back to the original masters, but unless you have supposed high-frequency content, MQA doesn't give you any benefits, so applying MQA encoding to a 44.1/16 recording is quite possible and doable, but entirely pointless. Then again, who would have thought the record companies would upsample existing recordings to be able to sell them as "hi-res"? :-/ "To try to judge the real from the false will always be hard.
