You haven't mentioned the type of music you listen to. I'm finding more and more recent CD's are recorded and mastered so poorly that I've stopped listening to them, even on my mid-range setup. Sometimes the better the system, the more it shows the shortcomings of modern CD releases.
I don't know much about your speakers, but I doubt the CD is the problem. I think the CA 840 is an excellent player (unlike AudioFeil), and the law of diminishing returns means you'd need to spend vastly more to hear a big difference.
