Conrad-Johnson MF2300A vs 2500A - Opinions


For anyone who has compared both of these on the same system, which is the overall better amp? Is there a significant difference? I'm primarily interested in a large soundstage and excellent imaging, but everything else matters (bass articulation, midrange sweetness, etc.). I will be listening on Infinity RS 8Kappa with a CJ PF2 preamp. I currently have a Krell 400xi as well as Hafler 9500 and Odyssey Stratos amps (over which I'm looking for an improvement). I Listen mostly to jazz, vocals/choral, classical.

Many thanks

I have Infinity RS 8Kappa. I believe the 2500A has bipolar output devices, while the 2300A has MOSFETs. This could be the reason for the leaner sound (but supposedly better bass control) of the 2500A? Does the MF200 have MOSFET output devices as well?
