Steve:

I have heard from anonymous government sources that the 200 has a good deal of good 'ol class A/B happening in there.

I think it's irrelevant to most people in the real world what kind of transistors, capacitors, resistors etc are inside an amplifier. Just because a manufacturer uses a certain kind of part, and brags about it in spec sheets, doesn't guarantee the sound quality or durability of the finished product. In the end, trying out the product in your home system is the best course of action. Either it works for you in your system or it doesn't.
