Looking for a significant upgrade from Dynaco A25 speakers

Edit: After reviewing the responses I sat down and really gave my system a listen with my eyes closed to try and get a better understanding and feeling of my thoughts and what Im looking for.

After about of an hour of listing what I came up with is as follows:

Everything sounds very good at a lower volume. Once I get in the groove and start to turn up the volume things start to change. I noticed the music starts to get flat, no real separation in instruments. Vocals sound strong clear. So is it the speakers , source, amplifier that is limiting what I am looking for?

Lack of power ... the neighbors Hafler should open them up, and allow them to sound as uncongested at higher volumes as they do at lower volumes ...
You'll certainly know if it's new speakers or an amp that you're looking for ..
I'm looking forward to hearing what you found with them connected to the Hafler...

For whom it may concern- Recapping the classic A25s does make a noticable difference. I just recapped my A40xls and it didn't do much for me. The last A25s that I recapped for a friend I added a bypass cap to try to get all the sparkle I could out of them. He's really happy with them and I'm in love with my classic A25s again after pairing them with a Harman Kardon 730.(Mine just have Dayton precision 5.1ufs I think ) For a great top end at a low price. Check out the Sony 3ways that are out. Fantastic top end even when compared to my Paradigms and NHT.
