I was very impressed with the warm (but powerful) sound, compact solid construction and beautiful presentation of the MD-208. It is driven by Sim-Audio (integrated) who I believe make solid state quite acceptable for even us tube lovers. Magnum Dynalab and Sim-Audio, what's not to like? This unit will make you think twice about three separates with expensive cable and a cluttered look. I thought the TAS review understated its performance because it is a "receiver". It is the best receiver I've ever heard and handsome too.
