difficult to say for me, i don't own a maq 16/3.
the only thing i can say is that the a154 added
so many functions to the a155, really stunning.
if you are going to buy the module solution, you should
definitely buy two a155, and you should consider buying
one or two a150 switches also.

the only thing which is a bit sad about the a155's is
that the max voltage range is only 4 volts. ok for a pure
a100 system, but if you are using other modulars as well,
then 4 volts are not really suitable for all purposes.
good that there are a133 polarizers available, which i use
often together with the a155's. i don't know the voltage
range of the maq 16/3, maybe it is 5 volts?
