Hi,
My dealer did not have the 7b3 so I auditioned the 802d3 with the 4b3s, MC611s, and MC452s. I listened to a variety of music (jazz, classical, blues and some rock CDs/SACDs) over 2 hours, and I made sure I listened to the same song on all 3 amplifiers for comparison. The MC611s sounded the best to me in terms of soundstage, “airiness”....I sounds like cliche, but with the MC611s, I can hear every note (particularly on piano) and voice like I am “there”.
I think it may be a bit unfair to compare the 4b3 with MC611 with such a difference in power capacity driving the 802d3. Hence, I think the 7b3 would be a fairer comparison but unfortunately my dealer did not have the 7b3 on hand.
