Time to look at newer speakers?


I’m a first time tube amp owner (PrimaLuna Prologue Classic integrated/stock EL34s). I’m using it with a pair of JBL L65s that I’ve had over 40 years...one refoam  back in the 90s.  Source component is a Music Hall MMF-5 turntable with the stock Goldring cartridge supplied with these a decade ago and this is going thru a Music Hall Pa1.2 preamp to the PrimaLuna.  I’m happy enough with this setup that, going on 2 weeks since acquiring the tube amp, it’s crossed my mind that a 12 step program geared toward compulsive audio-system-listening may be in order.  What I’m wondering here is if there are new(er) speakers out there that are of a commensurate price/quality level with the rest of my system that I should at least try to audition in my own setup if not (‘gasp’) actually consider replacing the JBLs with?  I listen primarily to “popular” genres (rock/pop) from the 60s onward but have been known to veer off into listening marathons of nearly everything under the sun (except opera and most hip hop) and mostly at non-threatening volume levels....will open it up enough to “thump” the Sheetrock once every blue moon but my days of trying to replicate heavy metal concerts in the living room are in the distant past.  Thanks.
