I would expect you to see a decent improvement with the MF amp. improved dynamics makes music much more enjoyable and your speakers deserve a better amp. 

you should also look at a power conditioner called PSM156 by puritan audio. check out the comments on Audiogon.

You will hear big improvements with clarity, separation and timbre. You will hear what your current amp is really capable of and it will improve the pre amp too.
