Are my speakers now the "weak link"?

Hi All, I have been upgrading my system over the last year or so. I am now wondering whether my Sophia series 1 speakers are limiting the performance of the system. That being said, I have no complaints and really enjoy the sound I have. However, the speakers are now 10 years old. The rest of the system: VPI Scoutmaster/SDS/Soundsmith Paua/Transparent Reference phono cables/Herron VTPH-2 phono stage/Musical Fidelity TriVista DAC/Musical Fidelity A3.2 CD/Musical Fidelity NuVista 800 Integrated amp/Transparent reference cables and power cables/Transparent Powerbank 8.
I listen to vinyl primarily, but I also really enjoy the sound of my CDs on this system.
Thanks for your opinions.

I would say the "two" weak links are the MF integrated AND the Sophias. I briefly owned Sophias and just couldn't like them, no matter how hard I tried.

That's interesting Shakey. I really love the Sophias and actually have struggled with the idea of parting with them. I very much enjoy the sound that I have. What other equipment were you using with the Sophias when you had them? Have you had any experience with the Nu Vista 800 amplifier? Thanks for your suggestions.

Most of these responses are just snide cracks. What do you not like about your system... lets take it from there.
