Thanks for the great writeup on your impressions Mwiebelhaus. I envy those who have 808 861 kit. I am a potential MC200 owner and would use it as a standalone one box solution into analogue preamp, amps (Bryston), and passive speakers (Dynaudio).

Have you had a chance to try the MC200 as a standalone piece via analogue outputs? Impressions?

Thanks, Al
