And the biggest influence on sound quality is...
I generally agree with the OP .My mood is tied with the recording quality.  
Do I need upgraded power cables?
If you’re primarily source is vinyl - did apro do your TT set up? This might be the best value if not.  
Whats on your turntable tonight?
@slaw love that album.  
Help needed to make system better, please
I have the same sub as the OP. Consider moving your sub crossover to 50 Hz and high passing your mains at the same frequency. You will have slam galore.   
How long should high quality speakers last?
In my speaker rotation are a pair of 37 year old ProAc Studio 3. I just replaced the 2 electrolytic caps in each crossover. One was bulging.   
Is the "improvement" real or imnagined?
Your mom made the blanket. You love your mom. Of course it is better sitting on mom’s blanket.    
One Sub or Two?
I have one Rythmic 15 in sealed sub. No space for 2. The speakers are high passes at 50 Hz and the sub is low passed at 50 Hz.    The sub integration is seamless and you really can not local the sub listening.

Is there any such thing as a bad sounding DAC these days?
My first DAC was a Scott Nixon USB. It was limited to 44k/16, but sounded very good.   
Bookshelf speaker pairing with subwoofer
These would be very nice. They disappear better then most box speakers. https://www.audioconnect.com/products/proac-tablette-10-signature

$3500 floor standing speakers used. What would be your choice ?
The OP’s description in his second post says ProAc just like his initial post. Just make sure you get enough juice from your tube amp.
