Jozatko71, your room is likely big enough to use Vienna Strauss or Mahlers, but definitely at least the Beethoven
Grands. You may want to try placement along one of the long walls to maximize staging. Vienna are fantastic musical instruments that need very methodical placement. If not placed correctly they can generate a significant hump in the mid bass and/or sound forward in the mid and mid treble. The US importer Sumiko has developed over the last 2 decades a setup methodology called MasterSet. The process is taught to all Sumiko dealers that are interested in learning it. One of the most ardent proponents of the methodology is Soundings HiFi of Denver (Co), who sells the process as a service to its customers. I am familiar with Mahlers, Beethoven Grands, and Baby Grands, and own a pair of Mahlers. . . I am mostly a listener of Classical and some female vocalists. . . Vienna speakers are heavenly.
Looking at the MF A5 specs, it looks like this amp has a moderate damping factor of 170, this will probably yield a slightly warm sound on Vienna speakers.
