What to upgrade in an exsisting HT setup


Hello, I have posted few threads up here and not really sure where to start. I currently have a home-theater setup that consists of audiowise, an Odyssey Stratos Extreme for my 2 main stereo channels/HT fronts, a Parasound HCA-855A for my center and surround channels, an Outlaw 950 for my pre-processor-tuner needs, an Adcom GCD-575 CD player. For speakers I have Infinity Kappa 8.1's series II for the front 2 channels, Infinity for the center, Klipsch Synergy B3's for my side surrounds, and Bose Acoustimass double jewel cubes for my rear surrounds. For my sub I am getting ready to replace, looking at an SVS 10" sub.

Now after saying all of that. I want to open up the detail of my music to get closer to the musicians per se. I have had an idea of adding a Belles Soloist 3 as HT Bypass, but not sure that I want to swallow $750 price tag. MY QUESTION is what would be the best idea on how to open up the music detail or what do I upgrade first? I am leaning and wanting something that is neutral in the sound. Maybe looking for other alternatives other than the Belles. But also keep in mind I have come from an Adcom amp to the Odyssey amp, I want to KEEP the Odyssey and build the system around that. Does Odyssey build a pre-w/HT Bypass? Any ideas? Anyone?

Thanks,

Try Walker SST contact enhancer on all connections. Also, give the DakiOm feedback stabilizers a try for your DVD player and amps; they are surprisingly effective at opening up a system's clarity and detail-without-harshness/brightness. And, they have a 30-day money back guarantee so you an send them back if you find they don't add the improvement you're seeking. I am not a DakiOm seller; just a satisfied customer.
