Surround Equipment; McIntosh MC 207 VS MC8207 or Other Option


Audiogon Family,
I am little unsure about the surround equipment market, but after many hours of research and I am still have not completed yet, my head is on overflow.
I purchased a pre-owned McIntosh MX 121 months ago, but I learned that it was not a self contained unit, so now I need a 7 channel power source. So I'm think I need a MC 207 or a MC 8207 or is there another option?
I've learned the why now, but I want to ask the Audiogon family which unit and why?

Sorry if you read my request and it seems crazy I just want to be more well informed so I do not make this any sorrier then it has to be to enjoy my home entertainment equipment.

The 207 and 8207 are the same basic amp with the only difference being the meters. I have a 205 and am very happy with it, but I use a MC402 for the fronts as I have a dual purpose system and wanted a dedicated 2 channel amp for music. You can't go wrong with either amp.
