Bigboy if you are trying out the MD 208 and are getting poor bass response I would question how you have the speakers set up.
I had the MD 208 in the showroom with the Peregrines and we got excellent bass response. It was not earth shattering but good and the Peregrine's are a much more difficult load than the Khorus.
Do you have the speakers toed in almost right at you? The distance from the back wall is critical. Make sure you do not have the rear ports plugged. You only plug the ports if you were using the old Roc not with the new Roc. I realize you are not using a sub or the bass would not be an issue.
The Alchemist Product 8 integrated is very good their website is www.alchemist.uk.com. But the magnum that you are evaluating is very good assuming that it is broken in and if your budget is $1500 it must be used so it should be.
You are welcome to call me and I will discuss the set up of the speakers. 360 874 1201 Stewart
