Dear @nkonor : I love Avalon speakers and I don't recomend to change for a diferent speakers but to same Avalon kind of design like the Eidolon Dimond tht makes a better job and goes deeper in the bass range but I don't know which its price.
I think that before to think in a spekares change ( Avalon or not for Avalon. ) you can better quality performance with a better phono stage as is the XP25 instead of boths of what you own today.
The other area where you can improve the quality sound is to go for the Etna ( I own the Kleos and I really like it but the Etna is even better. ) and for the XV-1s or the vDh Colibri or My Sonic Labs:
I think that inside your budget you can get all those 3 items I mentioned, this is an example if you go second hand:

Then after up-grade phono stage and cartridges then ( if I was you ) I think in the speakers, well that's me.
Regards and enjoy the MUSIC NOT DISTORTIONS,
