In practical terms the bridged mono version provides more watts and you need those extra watts with many speakers. However, the best solution is to buy a MC1502 which is a thoroughly updated Mac all tube design.

I agree that those upgrades are unlikely. I would love an MC1502 powering a pair of Wilson Sashas or Alexias, but my wife insists on small speakers and hidden amps. There's no way I can hide an MC1502--too big, too much heat. I am thinking about putting an MC275 on either of my Salamander cabinet, but probably kind of over the top for my TuneTots...
