You've posted multiple times that you aren't a fan of the MM 211 arc characteristics, especially compared to your Passport.
I am suspecting the MM190 is going to replace the MM 180. On 1/8" with C-25 the 180 has a real nice crisp arc, its draw back though is that it produces sluggish puddle wet out. Assuming the 190 is going to produce a nice crisp arc, I am hoping the faster response time of the inverter will improve arc quality and puddle wet out.

Just make the MM211 mo' better
I'd like to run a Fabricator 211i and see how their inverter tech welds.Ed Conley

I'd like to run a Fabricator 211i and see how their inverter tech welds.
24V - 25V @ 200 amps would easily cover most hobbyist's top end needs. The duty cycle would be light. Realistically though how much is the average hobbyist going to need the top end.
Most of my welding, at home, is on 1/8" and 3/16". For the 1/8", I 've always wanted a unit that produces a very consistent, very smooth crisp arc with light spatter and good puddle wet out. I'd like to have the opportunity to run a MM 190 to see if it is capable of producing this results.

I would gladly have purchased this new 190 over my 180 when I was buying. Lighter weight, smaller, and better duty cycle. I suspect this is kicking off a new era of migs. Would not be surprised to see the 140, 211, 212, and 252 all sporting inverters before long, under new names of course.
