What's Next?

Im 6months new to this high end audio. My current system consists of B&W 803s 805s htm center for the speakers. Transparent speaker cables tributarie rca's and digital connects. DSP is the Rotel 1098 AMP Rotel 1095 CD Rotel. My problem is Im looking for new speaker's to look into. Another brand maybe. Must sound better obviously. Stereo is what id be mostly concerned about. These speakers must have a real wood finish, must like being played loud for a decent amout of time and still be accurate. The 803s never disapointed me Im just ready for my next step. Later next year Ill do the amplification. But Id like to build this system around great speakers. Thanks I know you a-goners will help steer me in the right direction with your honest knowledgeable advise. Thanks again Matt

I would get rid of the Rotel and opt for something better that the B&Ws deserve.....

Everyone tells me the direction they would take after I wrote that I was going speakers first? The dvd player was brought up I replied can I get something for 2000. No one answered that. But kept telling me what I should do instead. Obviously I understand those components need to be replaced I told all of you Ill be going mcintosh. But not at this time.So I appreciate everyone telling me what they would do and thank everyone that actually answered a question that I asked. LOL Can any one tell me what (class A)DVD players to look into? Or is this going to go back to what I should do instead? Id like to stay around 2000.00 but would like all suggestions.Thanks

The Classe CD/DVD-1 and Marantz DV-9500 are both "A" rated DVD/CD Players, Both retail(ed) new for around $2,000 and sell used for around $1,500 (or less). The Marantz is newer and plays SACD. The Classe, I believe, offers better CD sound along with balanced outputs. In this price range, I don't think you can go wrong with either player.
