I tried a pair of MB200s for a month or so last year and it was "ok", not forward, not annoying but yet, rather musically boring. Take a look at my system to get an idea of the speakers I have. I tried the MB200s on both my speakers, which can be a bit demanding of amps for bass control.
A change to the entry level stereo amp, Symphonic Line RG-11, rated half the power of the MB200's and even though the RG-11 could not play quite as loud, it was far far more full and rich, 3D, etc. Incidentally, I also tried the Odyssey Stratus and the RG-11 again was in a different league. Moving up to the SL RG-1 stereo amp allowed my speakers to shine shine shine. I dream to own the SL Kraft amp(s) one day if they take this performance to a new level as claimed.
If your budget is in the $2k or under range, consider other amps like the McCormack, BAT or even the Plinius 102.
