Hi G997,

I have an MS600, an MS200 and recently an MC200. I have had the MDAC on them all. And I'm sorry the MDAC won every time to my ears. My wife and daughter both thought the same so it's not just me. The difference between the 200's and the 600 using the digital out I thought was minimal. Certainly get better bang for you buck putting the substantial $ saved not getting the 600 towards better amps, speakers or whatever. I really wanted the MS600 to be better - I spent a lot of cash on it, but the other is better IMO. So yes I was disappointed. I should say it's not bad... it's just that I now think you can do better if you want to use an external DAC.
