JC-1's, I have never heard the MFidelity's but the JC-1's are simply fantastic.
I had the Mac 501's in my system, and the Pass 350 and didn't like either of them nearly as well as the JC1's. The Mac sounded muddy and slow, and the Pass seemed way too bright. It could just be the other equipement and my speakers (Magnepan 3.6r's) didn't match with them as well, but I didn't like them together. Both of those amps went to people I know and they both work well in their systems.

Back to the initial question, I think you would like the JC1's with your 802's.
