Own two McIntosh tuners, MR500 and MR7084, like the older MR500 better. McIntosh does not make their newer tuners as good as the older models. It is presumed that people do not want to spend alot of money on excellant tuners any more. Many in to HT. I will wait for digital tuners when they come out before I buy again. Thought about switching to Magnum dynalab, but will wait. The older McIntosh tuners will pick up more distant stations that the newer models. That is why many hold on to the older models. No experience with MR85.
