I use shielded twisted pair (STP) cat6 cable from my 861v6 to my various non-SL DSP speakers in my HT and am very satisfied. In my lounge I use Meridian SpeakerLink cable between 818v2 and 8K's.
Robert's excellent Revivers allowed me to enjoy the sublime sound of the 818v2 with the old style 8K's, tiding me over until the upgrade was offered! Prior to the SL cable, I was using plain ole cat5 cabling, I thought there was a slight improvement using the M SL cable, it might have been a bias (in my head). In the end, does it matter that much?
IMHO , speakers > processor > streamer > cabling
this is historically where I have gotten the most out of my money (left hand side = higher "bang for the buck")
Switching from MP3 to FLAC for my streaming made a big difference a long time ago ... I assume you are beyond that :-)
Congratulations on getting your MC200 to work with your DSP speakers ... Enjoy the music!
