I have a Cambridge Audio 640A v2 Oppo DV-980H Im playing with ELT525M from AV123 there on Sanus speaker stands I have Ultralink speaker cables and Nordost interconnect from Amp to cd... Im thinking about what i need to upgrade.. i want to do new speakers (towers or bookshelves) but i was thinking a dedicated cd player or DacMagic... i also play movies on this but music is the main focus.. I have connected my PS3 and Xbox on it...

My next suggestion is not a fun one, but can be cheap.
