Speaker upgrade

I am planning on upgrading my speakers. I have the following equipment:

B & W 802N speakers
Jeff Rowland M301 amps
Jeff Rowland Synergi IIi preamp
Wadia 270 SE tansport
Harmonix 777 DAC
Audio Magic Power conditioners

I listen to mostly female and male voaclists and older jazz. I am currently happy with the sound that I am getting but I have extra funds at this time and want to upgrade my speakers. My budget is around $10,000. I will sell the speakers after I sell the new ones and use that money to buy the Jeff Rowland 302 amp. What is out there that is a must audition speaker for a 15' x 30' listening sapce? Thanks again for any suggestions.

What about just adding a Velodyne DD 15 or 18 sub to my current system? Is that advisable as a first step?

Dear Bryan: Yes, that will be a very good first step. A pair of DD-15 will do wonders on your system in a true stereo way.

Regards and enjoy the music.

Rauliruegas:

Are a pair of the Velodye DD18 a good fit for a 15' x 30' room or is the DD15 a better choice?

Dear Bryan: The DD-15 is a good choice. As a fact the DD-15 and DD-18 almost have the same performance, the real differences you can hear it only in a big room.

Regards and enjoy the music.

I have purchased a single DD-18 at this time. I will add this then think about a second to get the true stero effect.
