Upgrade suggestions needed


just moved up from my old yamaha m-80 and i can't believe
what i've been missing. now i want more , and i could really use some help.
my current system is a rotel 991 cdp, krell
krc-3 pre, rotel 1080 amp and my old a/d/s L1590 speakers.
ic cables are custom house " barracuda " (xlr) and i'm using braided cat-5 cable for the speakers (bi-wired). i also have an old b&o 3300 turntable which i need a pre for, or maybe i should just replace it.
right now, things sound best at higher levels, but lacks warmth , some cd's are fine, others are too harsh,( making the speakers way too bright) and some seem almost perfect.
should i try a differant cdp,an upsampler or try a new amp . was thinking of a c-j mv-55 and a rega planet or a musical fidelity a3-24 , but would appreciate any advice. thanks for your help.
i listen to all music, but prefer blues,ie. robert cray, susan tedeschi etc. and the room is kinda large, 22 x 28 x 11. thanks again

I'll second Judit's recommendation. The speakers appear to be the weakest link. Also, get a phono preamp and get that turntable going again. LP's will sound 'warmer' than digital. You may want to trade the B&O for a Rega 3 or VPI JR. As for speakers, go listen to some Dynaudio, Sonus Faber, Vienna Acoustic, Soliloquay, or Silverline speakers. Then you'll realize it's your speakers.

Happy hunting,
John
I also agree with Judit and John's recommendation. Do the speakers, if not the speakers perhaps a tubed preamp...it should produce some warmth in the highs and mids. Just an opinion. Have fun.
i had a feeling that might be the answer, but was hoping otherwise. new electronics seem more fun.
does anyone know of a good place to demo. i live south of boston,can't find anyplace that doesn't push b&w.
Goodwin's High End sells Karma, Martin Logan, Audio Physics, Dunlavy. They are outside of Boston. Good store, they treated me real well.
