Upgrade suggestions sought


I recently bought the B&K Ref 50 preamp and now have the upgrade bug! Currently use system for 70% HT and 30% music.

Current System:
Speakers--All NHT: 2.5 in front; AC 1 center and NHT rears.
Amps: Acurus A250 (front) ; and 200w x 3 way for center and rears.
Speakers and Amps bought around 1997
Sub: Earthquake Supernova 10in. (just got this 3 months ago)..
Trying to figure out what to upgrade next-speakers or amps and where I can get the best bang for the buck. Appreciate all suggestions in advance.

Get rid of those acurus amps. I auditioned them about 5 years ago and thought they were some of the worse sounding (brittle, bright) amps that I had ever heard. Could not understand this because their intergrated amp (DIA100?) sounded pretty good for the money.
