Welcome to AA!

Yes, I did have extensive listening sessions to both at my dealer, and to my ears, the SQ difference is significant (clarity, headroom, bass). Driving the 802s with good amplifiers is a must. I am very happy with MC611s and 802D3s.

I would recommend you listen to both and make a decision. Happy listening
