Hi there Max. Ok,the sad truth: I doubt a speaker change is all you need. As I read thru your list of components---I see you need most everything;cables included. There is so much you're not hearing. I would be looking for some giant killer pieces. Those speakers you have now;or the V S's can sound so much better. (When driven by better ecectronics) Maybe a sub,as suggested above will give you a fix. or, Start with a giant killer cd player/then a dac & cable. Your speakers (maybe your ears too) are hungering for quality components. Changing speakers at this point would only be a move "sideways".
