Advice needed on Amp


I have a modest system consisting of Wharfedale Jade 5s, Sim audio 230 HAD used as a dac an digital preamp, and a Parasound HCA 1500A Amp I purchased new years ago.  I use GIK corner traps and spme  side and rear wall panels because my listening room is small at 12 feet  by 15 feet. 

This system sounds nice but I would like to increase the level of transparency. I have a small budget of 2,500. It would seem to me that the weak link in my system is the Parasound. Ideally I should spend hours going round to audio shops auditioning equipment. Being a man of 68 years old this does not appeal to me.  I am hoping for some advice from you kind and wise souls to help this old man with a decision. 
At one time I had a subtational record and cd collection. Divorces and other bad choices leave me with Tdal and Hi Rez down loads as my sources for media. .

Thank You

If you don't have dedicated power lines and some good AC outlets I'd suggest starting there to hear what your audio components can sound like.
