Upgrade from ProAc Response D2 in small room

I’ve been enjoying my ProAc Response D2s, supplemented by a pair of tiny REL subs but…of course wondering if I can improve. The room is a bit small: 10' 4" x 14' 6" x 8 and treated with several GIK bass traps. Speakers are being driven by a Belles Signature Dual Mono.

Any thoughts on possible upgrades?

@goethe58 "treated with several GIK bass traps" how was this done and did you take any RTA alongside your listening to them in your space.

Cos I don't know what is missing that you want to change unless you just have what is called upgradeitis

@OP - If you like the Response D2, why not listen to the Response D20. I used a pair of Proac 2.5s in a room smaller than that for many years with excellent results. BTW, in a room that size you need some diffusion as well as bass trapping. I would see to that before changing speakers.

if the sound signature of the Proac is something you like, stick to it. I heard the Proac D2 and there are very good but not for me. I settled for Falcon. you may need a bigger Proac. also, the D20R has a ribbon tweet. you may like it

what may happen is you may have no need for a sub
