I like Kraus' Sony set very much; haven't heard the M&A.  There's just
one pianist I've heard who I feel surpasses Kraus in Mozart - Uchida.
She plays the fast movements with an abandon and propulsion that nobody
else matches.  I have no idea if her recordings are currently available
as a set, but I'd get them one way or another and gladly pay full price.
