MR80 needs only 14.7 dBf for the same level of quieting in stereo (50 dB). Of course, this is only as critical as the desired signal is weak.

Per the link you posted it is 17dBf with the T-1100. Think you must have misread.

However, I found no 'real world' difference in sensitivity between my Terry DeWick'd MR80 and my T-106, which is also rated at 17dBf. To my ears, the T-106 is the better sounding of the two. YMMV.
