Hi Tom...the ARC V100ll was quite good. Clear, clean articulate. I went to a ASL Hurricane for more power and I got it, although I do not listen at a very high level but the ASL gave me a greater stage and easy of sound. The problem I had with the "original" Hurricane was reliability. Therefore I went with the Mac's. It's just more reliable. What I got with the 2 MC 275's (180wpc) was more "flesh and body" on the bones of music. Yes, it is more of a tubey sound but smooth and sweet. I'm happy.
Schipo, however, is correct. There is the argument to keep house sound with amps so perhaps the same amp (or company) for top and bottom.
Anyway...I'm happy with what I have and best of luck.
