Mac 402 & Audio Research LS25MKl ?

I just bought the AR this last week. I like it, it is giving me so much more then I have had in the past.
The 402 is also very new to me. I do like what I am hearing but really would like to know what choices I may have for an improvement to my system.
My question: What amp is a better match for my AR? What really would I be gaining if I were to change?
I like the power of the 402.
My speakers are the Montana EPX. They are 4 Ohm. "these are keepers"
Thanks in advance for your input, it is greatly appreciated.

If you have a good amp, preamp, and speakers (and you do), the next place to look at is your front end......... what's going on there. More info..........

Cmo,
I have the MBL 1531 CD Player. I also use the Reimyo ALS-777 AC Line Power Conditioner. All my power cords, Interconnects and speaker cables are Harmonix.
I do plan on adding Analog in the very near future.
I have 2 dedicated lines and a dedicated room approx. 24 foot x 30 foot with a drop ceiling.
Thanks,
Dave

I believe your going to have to spend a whole lot more to improve the Mac 402 - I would give your current system plenty of time to settle in, really get to know it and then work on a change if you want something different - just my opinion.

I just sold my A.R.LS25 great preamp, may I suggest tube rolling. Your mac is fine. Other suggestions are good balanced cables.
