I have had both the MC452 and MA8900. The 8900 was used in a system used for background music, not critical listening, with B&W805D3 speakers. I could not bring myself to completely embracing the audio output. I never really had it loud enough to be able to evaluate the soundstage plus I am not completely sure it was setup optimally. I went from a MC252 to the MC452 and was surprised at the difference between the two amps. A C2300 was used with both. The MC452 was a pleasure to own and was enjoyable to listen to, never fatiguing.
