How would you upgrade my entry level system?


I have $5k go upgrade my 2 channel system. 

Oppo 105d for cd play
sonos connect
brio r
audiovector qr speakers 

I listen to ripped cds, cds and increasingly streamed via pandora/Spotify. 

Rock, alt county, soul...

What would you prioritize ?

Many thanks SG

Keep the Brio R, then use the $5k as follows: $2k on new on Teac nt505 dac/streamer (best streamer under $5k imo) and $3k on new or used speakers.

Speakers are such a personal choice. I’d look at Focal Aria 936, Spendor A4, Dynaudio Excite X? whichever model hits that price point.

Then subscribe to $20/mo Tidal or Amazon hifi or Qobuz. Good luck!!

note the Teac requires Ethernet connection (not WiFi). If you can’t do Ethernet at install location then disregard my recommendation
