what's the next upgrade

What about cables and points?

Twl, Don't you think that in this price range the money would be better spent on source components? Far more difference in the sound of different components in this price range than in the differences brought by tweeks, IMHO. Sales slow?

Treat your room for bass and first reflections. You have no idea of the potential of your equipment until you hear your system in an environment that addresses the room, IMO

The Arcam FMJ CD23T should be considered and auditioned. It is much better than the Jolida 100. A used one should be about $1200.

I agree with Slv, Twl, and Warrenh. But Newbee? NEVER! :)

Seriously though, I would put properly addressing vibration control, properly addressing line-conditioning, installing dedicated circuits/lines, and speaker placement at the top of any system's list of priorities for two simple reasons:

1. Without properly (gotta' keep using that word) addressing vibration control, the AC, and speaker placement, it is impossible (to the best of my knowledge) to realize the potential of your equipment regardless of how much you spend on it. In other words, these are universally foundational categories for everyone.

2. Relatively speaking, vibration control, AC treatments, and speaker placement are among the more inexpensive items in a given system. Of course if you pay no attention to these issues, they cost you even less.
