Where is my weakest link?

My system consists of Rotel front end (rdv1080 dvd,rsp976 pre/pro.) The amp is a B&k 5000 and the speakers are Paradigm Studio 100's with other paridigms throughout. I use the system for both HT and music. Movies sound good but I need a good upgrade for 2 channel lisening.I am thinking of trying the Music Fidelity A324 to get that extra little something out of the the stereo music I listen to. Any help would be greatly appreciated. BTW I am using all PS Audio power cords and Sinergystics and Straight Wire interconnects. Again thanks for listening.

Thanks for all your input (except for John). How about adding an oversampling DAC (like the Music Fidelity) to my Rotel and replacing my amp with a better one? Would this work and would it be worth it? Thanks again for listening.

Sell the rotel and pick up a used Sony DVP s9000es DVD/SACD/CD player for about $600. It's an excellent unit and you'll find numerous threads here on audiogon confirming that.

Thanks for those comments Stehno. The only thing I am concerned about with selling my Rotel is that it is progressive scan and DVD-A compatable. I am just wondering if the sony is that much better. If the latter is the case and i could pick one up that cheap i could use it for a player or a transport only.

Maybe it's all in your head. That's where we try to fool ourselves into thinking this little HiFi system actually sounds like live music. It's all a mental game after all.
