Old vs. New? I got the old. Never heard the new. So, I would love to hear someone's opinion on both of these.

Well from what I was told..., besides the cosmetics. The opamps are different with the old vs. new. Different brands of pots were used over the 8200's life span.

The metal switch employed separate in/out buffer cards for each channel, each with its own local regulation and power filtering. (alot more work, labor and cards than the newer model). The newer push button has only a two-channel buffer card.


Hope that helps.
