Meadowlark Ospreys.. fighting under their weight class?

could use a little help and advice...please

I've been upgrading components over the past few years. Was at CES this year in Vegas and visited most of the high end audio booths to hear the latest gear and, well, wow.. amazing time to be into audio. Just impressed.

I would like to know if my speakers aren't up to the league of my components or am I just artificially enamored by demo gear..

I bought Meadolwark Ospreys which are gorgeous speakers in 2004, new from a respected audio dealer in Atlanta. Fast forward to 2017 and I've upgraded everything but the speakers:

Pass Labs XP20 Line Pre
Pass Labs XP15 Phono
VPI Prime, Clearaudio Maestro V2 MM
VTL ST150, MAC 275, Mac 240, currently with VTL
Grover Huffman cables
reasonable room treatment

I listen to LPs 3-4 nights a week which keeps me at peace. Are the Ospreys a weak link? The auditions at CES were just incredible.

I have owned multiple Meadowlarks including the Osprey (I even still have my huge ultra rare Osprey center channel laying around).

They're great speakers, but I bet anything you upgrade to would be very satisfying for you.  I'm sure you are also just bored of their sound.  That's a long time.

Whats your budget?
