That is not entirely correct. I've been contemplating the same thing, since (nearly) every excelon model has a correlating "base" model. At the very least, the preamp outputs on the MP series are crippled (4v versus 5v in the above case, bigger differences for other models). What I don't know is if the components are actually different, or if they just have different internal settings. Hope you're still looking at this thread.
