For what it's worth, I run an MS600 into an Audio Research amp, into Magnepans, and am very happy with the sound via Roon.

I don't remember exactly what I paid for my MS600 (used), but it was around $1,300 (U.S.). I would expect the second hand prices to be much lower for two reasons:

1. The MS600 doesn't support MQA decoding, and I don't know of any reason to believe it ever will.

2. With the recent price reduction of the MS600, the used price should fall significantly.

They shouldn't be too tough to find on the used market these days if you have a bit of patience.

Best of luck
