Hello, late here, anyhow...
I have sold my 200 und bought a used 220pro. It is another much better unit, and I believe a 200 wouldn't got better, if someone just add a second piece.
One thing that hasn't been mentioned here much is the streamer, much better. The resolution is higher and the "S" is smoth now, as it should.
Amplifier sounds a class higher, more room, enough power and bass. Phono at Devialet is a lie! Sorry, there is no phono amplifier, either in the 200 nor in the 220. It needs a high-output cartridge a step-up-transformer or a separate phono amplifier, at least with 0.3mV MC systems.
What are the options? A used Pass INT-60 without Phono or Streamer (5500-10000,-) or a new Dan D Agostino Progression Integrated (25000,-)
