What changes would make 60v2's sign


Looking to make changes in system that would enhance and open up my Paradigm Reference 60v2's.
Music tastes are electric and acoustic blues, Ronny Earl, Terry Evans, SRV, Jimmy Thackery etc. to new country, lite Jazz, some classical and older rock (darkside of the moon etc). System is fairly old compared to whats out there today and the 60v2's plus servo 15 sub are the only changes that have taken place in say the last 8 to 10 years.
Components are:
NAD 7100x receiver
Sony C601ES CDP
Denon DR-M30HX Cassette
Dual 502 Turn table
Paradigm 60v2 speakers
Paradigm servo 15 sub
nothing fancy for I.C.'s & 12 gauge OFC speaker cable (8ft)

Any and all suggestions would be greatly apprecicated.

A nice integrated would really make a difference. Anthem products seem to do well with paradigm in my experience. The INT 2 is available usually for around 600-700 dollars. Depending on how much you want to spend, you could look at things like a levinson 383 or a Rowland Concentra II. I'm sure both of those would do the paradigms justice. Also, the cd player could be updated. I would think that even spending 500-600 on a cd player would make a huge difference. In that area you could look at the Rega Planet 2000, Music Hall CD 25, or maybe the Linn Mimik. Any of these upgrades should open up the paradigms. They are very detailed, so whatever you throw at them is what you're gonna hear. You have a great speaker, but it will sound even better with the correct equipment and cable choices.
