This is an incredibly interesting and strange hobby.
I guess each person needs to make a decison about what level of craziness they are happy with. I am very happy right now and really could only see a source upgrade at sometime in the future.
I think for me the key has been gradually getting components that are at a similar level of quality (entry level audiophile). It seems like if you get speakers that are much better than the rest of the system, then you will not know or hear their true potential and be left wondering. If you get a great pre/power setup or a great integrated, but you have average speakers...well you get the idea.
You have nice components. For two channel my guess is an upgrade in pre or power or both will make a big difference and get your system matched better across the board. It took me awhile to be convinced, but receivers generally are not designed for two channel listening.
Have fun!
