Replacement for Vandersteen 2ce

Hi everyone,
i have found this forum extremely helpful so I’m looking for some opinions on replacement speakers for my Older Vandersteen 2ce speakers. Been trying to do tweaks but wondering if I can improve the imaging and soundstage with something else maybe in the 2-4K region. 
Components are as listed:
Krell Digital Vanguard w/ Shunyata Delta NR PC
Acoustic Signature Triple X
SPL Phonos 
Marantz CD6006 w/ 
Digital from ITunes through RME DAC
Vandys have 15ft Taralabs RSC Primes which I was going to cut in half or replace but if I’m going to buy new speakers I’ll hold off.
I appreciate any help!

I like the suggestion of Vandersteen 3 or 3A or 3A Signatures, depending on what you can find. You should get similar but better sound from them.

(I own and use a pair of Vandersteen 4A in  one of my systems)

The latest 3A Sig's have the newest 4 inch reflection free midrange, the same one used in the Treo CT's. I believe this new mid offers the greatest resolution the 3A ever had. IMO.

I found my 2ce’s definitely improved in every way with improvements in the front end, especially the power amp. Moved to a big Bel Canto class D and it made a big difference. Really brought them to life!
